Landlords’ Fees

We will be pleased to discuss our various services and the fees chargeable.  

Where we are instructed to manage the tenancy following letting, our letting and agreement fees is the equivalent of four weeks’ rent, to include advertising on the relevant portals, (minimum £395). On properties over £1,000 monthly rent it is reduced to 2 weeks rent plus £500.  Where we are just instructed to find a tenant, prepare and sign an inventory and tenancy agreement, and attend to regulatory requirements, an extra fee of two weeks rent, plus £80 if a deposit is taken, will apply. VAT is payable on top of all fees.

Our commission for management varies accordingly to your property and your requirements.
