Our Fees
The annual fees for long lets on Assured Shorthold Tenancies for letting and management are 10% of the rent or if only one service is required the fee would be 6% of the rent for letting or 6% of the rent for management.
The letting fee includes rent insurance, to protect the Landlord’s rent should the tenant default. Also there are no extra charges for writing lease agreements, serving notices or other paperwork.
The management fees include a 24/7 service with no extra charges for any work/repairs that we organise on behalf of the Landlord – in other words the invoice our contractors charge is what our client pays we do not receive any commission or other payment from our contractors.
Please get in touch with us today if you have any questions or are looking to get started.
