We appreciate that our fixed fee offering can make it a little difficult to compare our fees with the percentage-based fees charged by other agents, so we’ve prepared this table to help you.
The top row shows a range of percentages which you may pay to other percentage-fee-based agents, and the first column on the left is a range of rents. Find your current or anticipated rent on the left and then find the column with percentage fee (including VAT) you are paying, or have been offered by another agent. Where the column and row meet is the amount you will save including VAT.
One other thing to remember is that we don’t charge landlords for tenancy agreement administration. Most other agents will charge you anything between £100 and £300 for a tenancy agreement, but we don’t. So, you’ll be saving even more than the tables shows!

Le Secret des Rôtisseurs
If you’re looking for a beautiful setting, amazing service and delicious roast chicken there’s no better place than Le Secret des Rôtisseurs.
Chicken is their speciality, but the menu isn't restricted to just chicken dishes though. Starters include deep-fried camembert and a platter of smoked fish, though a terrine of poultry livers served with gherkins and sourdough brings the bird back into play. The French waiters are courteous and attentive. Located in London, Canary Wharf, overlooking the River Thames…. the view, the Chicken and an amazing location! It even has a terrace too, perfect for al fresco dining…. when the weather allows.

New Providence Wharf is a residential development in London's Docklands which sits on the banks of the Thames, across the river and opposite to the O2 Arena in Greenwich. Designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and developed by Ballymore, NPW was completed in 2004.
New Providence Wharf itself is a crescent-shaped block which runs along the southerly side of Fairmont Avenue. However, Ballymore have in essence created a large high-end residential community as Providence Tower (now Charrington Tower), Columbia West Apartments and Ontario Tower all fall inside the security cordon. The Radisson Blu Edwardian Hotel is next door to New Providence Wharf… if you ever run out of space when the family comes to visit.

Arena Tower (aka Baltimore Tower), designed by world-renowned architects Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, is due for completion imminently and we are 100% sure of two things:
1. The occupants are going to like Baltimore Tower very much
2. Baltimore Tower has already made a massive impression on the Canary Wharf skyline
