We may charge a tenant any or all of the following when required:

1. The rent

2. A security deposit with a maximum of 5 weeks rent, or 6 weeks on a property with rent over £50,000 per year

3. Default fee for late payment of rent (after 14 days)

Reposit - Nil Deposit Scheme

We’ve partnered with a company called Reposit who offer an alternative to paying a cash deposit. By using Reposit you can save a lot of money upfront as you will only need to pay the Reposit fee of £300, instead of a cash deposit which will be £1500. The Reposit fee is not refundable at the end of the tenancy. You can use the money you save to spend on something you actually want!

Please note that just like a normal deposit, you are still liable for any valid, end of tenancy charges. The difference with Reposit is that you keep control of your cash and only pay these if they actually occur at the end of your tenancy, rather than paying at the start. If you stay beyond a 12 month period, a £30 charge will be payable to reposit once a year to continue the cover.

This is optional and a normal deposit scheme is also available. Reposit is subject to certain referencing criteria and may not be granted following referencing

EPC Rating: B

Location

Positioned in the heart of Lancaster overlooking the canal Royal View is a modern apartment complex that was only built in 2009. To live here is to have the whole of the city centre on your doorstep, take a walk down the canal and drop in the White Cross or Waterwitch pubs or pop into town on market day to sample the variety of different stalls. Such a handy location having the Aldi supermarket just down the road and Royal Lancaster Infirmary just on the opposite side of the canal. The train station is not far away either, making a commute to Manchester or even London far easier.

Balcony

Good size balcony with views over the canal.

Parking - Allocated Parking
