Vendor Fees

Overall Fees
1% (inc. VAT), On Completion (Fees are not negotiable)

A truly personal service! Deal with one person from valuation, through to completion. As standard you will receive:
- Professional photographs
- 2D floor plan
- Listing on Rightmove, Zoopla, and Primelocation
- Accompanied Viewings
- Offer management
- Sales progression through to completion
- 24/7 Availability

As of 23/05/2019, we have achieved an average of 100.19% of asking price for our vendors, in an average timescale of just 16 days!! This means that on average we negotiate an extra 3.79% of asking price for our clients when compared to the national average of 96.4%. The average property price in the East Midlands as of January 2019 was £229,996 which means on average we could negotiate an extra £8,700 for you!

Remember... the cheapest agent, is the one who gets you the most money!

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Complaints Procedure

Should you wish to make a complaint, a copy of the Agent’s Internal Complaints Handling Procedure can be obtained from the Agent.
