"Greedy landlords who ejected tenants in order to gather up fat rents from Olympic visitors are being left bitterly disappointed. Estate agents say only a tiny proportion of homes offered for rent have been taken.


Just nine days before the opening ceremony, one dedicated website was listing more than 4,200 rooms still available in the capital. Landlords now face substantial void periods and the spectre of rent falls as a glut of unwanted Olympic rentals are returned to the market.


?It has been a total waste of time,? says Guy Watson, managing director of Champions estate agents in Chelsea. ?We have let a total of one house ? to a South American Olympic committee.?

    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars. 
    • Did anyone actually venture in to that place? I recall it always being closed/very uninviting!
    • Perry Bamonte from The Cure.. Just 65 years old.
