At Lucie White & Co, we take a different approach to traditional letting agents. Whether you have a bijou studio flat or a detached family home to rent, every property – and every landlord – is unique, so our services are tailored accordingly.
Our small, knowledgeable team shares over 70 years experience of the London rentals market and can offer correct, trustworthy advice and support every step of the way:
