Phillip James lets and manages properties across Shoreham town, Shoreham Beach, Old Shoreham, and the wider BN43 area.
We focus purely on lettings — realistic valuations, carefully selected tenants, and straightforward management without the sales pitch.
What landlords say

For landlords who manage the tenancy themselves.
We market, reference, and move in a quality tenant — then hand the tenancy back to you.
More on Tenant FindFor landlords who want it handled, day to day.
We find the tenant and run everything after — rent, maintenance, inspections, compliance, and renewals.
More on Fully ManagedFor landlords who want dependable monthly income.
An optional add-on: your rent keeps coming even if the tenant falls into arrears.

“We have been using Phillip James Lettings since 2008 to help us with 2 flats we rent out. Prior to that we used a couple of the bigger names out there but I'm so glad we made the change — and stuck to it!”
“As a private landlord of a house in the Preston Park area of Brighton, it was refreshing to deal with such a professional and knowledgeable letting agent.”
“The service they give is friendly, super helpful and personal — and that goes for our tenants as well. Having had some very rude and brusque treatment from various lettings companies when I was a renter, this was important to me as I didn't want people renting from us to feel as I had back then.”
Free and no-obligation — a realistic figure from real local lets, not a quote to win your business.
Get a valuationThe Shoreham-by-Sea market has held a steady rhythm through late spring. Two-bedroom properties — typically around £1,400 a month — are letting in about a fortnight, while one-beds at £1,150 are taking closer to three weeks. Three-bedroom homes at £1,775 are moving at a similar pace to one-beds, around three weeks, though the sample is smaller. Four-bedroom stock at £2,625 is scarce enough that it's hard to gauge pace reliably.
The market remains fairly balanced between flats and houses, with most activity concentrated in the one- and two-bedroom brackets. Available stock is light at the moment, which is typical as we move toward the summer letting season, though nothing is letting within days — the pace feels measured rather than rushed.
For buy-to-let investors, gross yields sit around 6.5% on flats and between 5% and 5.5% on houses, depending on type.

About this data
These figures describe the Shoreham-by-Sea rental market— typical (median) rents by bedroom, how long homes are taking to let, overall demand, and an estimated gross yield. Rents and days-to-let are drawn from current and recently-let comparable listings in the area; we use medians rather than averages, so a handful of unusual listings don’t distort the picture. Gross yield is a year’s rent against the typical recent sale price for the same property type, matched by bedroom count (the Land Registry doesn’t record bedrooms), with the headline figure blended across property types by their share of the local rental market. Sale prices are from HM Land Registry Price Paid. Figures are current as of June 2026 and refreshed regularly — all are indicative, and individual properties vary.
