We hear it time and time again from people looking to rent a home:

“What?, only £50? Agent X, Y and Z charged me over £100 to reference”

Well good news, we charge £50 per applicant, once.  We cannot morally or ethically charge up to £180 to reference a tenant when it costs us a fraction of that to make those checks.  We’ve even heard horror stories of agents charging prospective tenants fees for such things as going on lists and needlessly renewing contracts every six months!  Its hard enough when you are trying to rent a property to find the money that is required.  On top of that first months rent you’ve usually got a bond to pay as well as all the nice new items of furniture or nik naks that everybody likes to buy when taking on a new home.

At R K Lucas & Son you can expect a professional service that doesn’t seek to charge you in anyway we think we can get away with, just £50 to apply per tenant, not per property.

Stop by and have a chat about your rent needs or give us a call, we’re sure you’ll be delighted with what we offer and how much money you can save instead of using a different Agent.
