Any other services you require not included in the standard package like credit checking prospective tenants, contract renewals and reletting of the property at the end of the fixed term are all available as optional extras.There are two ways to pay – monthly or annually, which ever suits your needs.
Paying a monthly percentage
This is the easy way to spread the cost of the management as you receive your monthly rental income. Our fee is 9% of the monthly rental income.If you decide to take out this deal you’ll sign either a 6 or 12 month contract with us. Your contract doesn’t begin until your tenant moves in and you don’t pay us a penny until they do!
