Fees and services
How much does fully managed letting cost?
Our standard monthly management fee is 9% of rent including VAT. The first managed let costs £239; each later new tenancy costs £478.80. Inspections are £60 each and check-out is £60. Maintenance we arrange has a 10% works charge. Your written quote confirms what applies.
What does let only cost?
Let Only is 90% of the first month's rent including VAT, paid once. We find and prepare the tenant; you manage the property after move-in. There is no ongoing monthly management fee for this service.
Is fully managed or let only right for me?
Choose Let Only if you want help finding a tenant and will manage rent, repairs and the tenancy yourself. Choose Fully Managed if you want the team to continue handling the day-to-day tenancy. You can discuss different services for different properties.
Are there renewal, check-in or admin fees?
We do not charge separate renewal, check-in, deposit-registration or routine admin fees. Letting, inspections, check-out and arranged maintenance have their own published charges, so compare the full quote rather than the headline percentage alone.
Does your comparison show an industry average?
No. The traditional-agent figures on our comparison page are editable examples, not a measured industry average or a quote from your agent. Enter the actual fees in your agreement to compare the same services and period. Savings depend on those figures.
Switching and your tenancy
Can I switch agent while a tenant is living in my property?
Yes, a change of agent does not itself require the tenant to move out. Check your current agency agreement for notice, fees and handover terms. Our team can help coordinate the tenancy paperwork, certificates, deposit records and rent arrangements.
Am I tied in?
No long lock-in. Two months' notice and the file, certificates and tenant contact come with you.
Who handles repairs?
You do — it is your property. We triage, quote, dispatch and pay from rent receipts. Over £200 you approve first. A 10% works charge applies to maintenance we arrange, and it is on the schedule you sign.
How quickly will you find a tenant?
It depends on the home, asking rent, condition, local demand and viewing availability. Your agent can review those factors with you. We do not promise a fixed letting time for every property.
Coverage and your team
Do you cover my postcode?
We offer lettings and management across the UK. Enter your full property postcode to match your enquiry to the area's letting agent. Where no area agent is assigned, Dan is the default contact.
Can you manage a portfolio in different cities?
Yes. We discuss the location, rent and service for each property and provide a portfolio proposal. The website shows volume-pricing examples; your agreed quote confirms the fees for your homes.
Do you manage HMOs?
Our HMO service covers room-by-room lettings and shared-house management. HMO licensing, fire safety and other requirements depend on the property and council. Book a call with Dan to review your houses and get the HMO-specific fee schedule.
When can I contact the team?
Our published team hours are weekdays 9am–6pm UK time. You can send a website enquiry or choose an available calendar appointment online. Urgent property issues should use the contact details provided for your tenancy.
Protection and next steps

Which redress and client money protection schemes do you belong to?

Is an instant rental estimate a final valuation?
No. ValPal provides an estimate based on the selected address and supported property details. Condition, improvements and local demand can affect the achievable rent. Speak to your agent for a more detailed valuation before deciding an asking rent.
Do I have to choose a calendar appointment to enquire?
No. You can leave your name, email, postcode and a message and choose Call me or Email me. Add a phone number if you want a call. You can also book an available appointment if you prefer.
