Our Fees Explained
Because our services are quoted on an individual basis and are designed therefore to be flexible and to meet your precise needs, we quote all clients individually before commencing any work. However the following gives indicative costs of the basic services.
Registration
If you are purchasing a property, there is an initial registration fee of £350 (inclusive of VAT). The initial registration fee retains our services for 26 weeks. If you wish to renew for a further period of 26 weeks a fee of £100 will be payable, subject to agreement by both parties this fee is deducatable from the finders fee.
If you are renting a property, there is an initial registration fee of £150 (inclusive of VAT). The initial fee retains our services for 6 weeks. If you wish to renew for a further period of 6 weeks a fee of £100 will be payable, subject to agreement by both parties.
The registration fee covers our first 150 miles of travel on your behalf. Additional mileage is charged at 25p per mile.
Finder's Fee
Once you have exchanged contracts on a property that we have proposed to you, you pay us the finders fee. As each client is quoted individually this ranges, but an average fee will be around 0.75% of the price of the property paid for the final negotiated price not the advertised fee.
Remember - we could save you money by negotiating the best price for you using our local market knowledge. We could end up saving you more than the fees you pay us
For each rented property the finder’s fee is one month’s rent (or equivalent).
