Source checked 2026-10-15. View the published fee schedule. Owner confirmation is outstanding.

Not a complete quotation. All rates and fixed charges already include VAT.

The period is an estimate horizon, not a promise of a fixed tenancy. The commercial fee schedule uses: Long let — six months or more.

Explicit charge counts for the selected model

Leave a count blank if unknown. Other models use the labelled example counts: letting only start-up 1, registration 1, renewal 0; managed additional inspections 0. These are editable scenario assumptions, not confirmed charges for a contract.

Count limits are input safeguards, not service limits. Registration billing for a part year and renewal applicability require confirmation.

Published-rent example: three fee models

Illustrative fee scenario using queens-gate-4: £3,000 per month, checked 2026-10-15. This is arithmetic using a published rent and fee schedule, not an offer for this apartment.

Letting only: one start-up event, one registration charge, no renewals. Managed: no additional inspections. Registration is an explicit scenario input, not inferred from the period.

What the result means

Commission is based on total rent due: monthly rent × planning months × the published rate, rounded once to the penny. The rates and fixed charges already include VAT.

Known fee subtotal adds only explicit applicable charges. The effective rate divides that subtotal by rent due over the same period. Missing charge counts make the subtotal unavailable.

The 12-month equivalent uses the same selected rate and excludes events. A short-let equivalent is not a quotation for a long let. Six months is the commercial schedule boundary, not a legal tenancy definition.

Long letting-only has an unresolved total rental premium / whichever is greater condition. The percentage component is not a minimum complete invoice. Standalone management does not price tenant-finding; short-let applicability is not confirmed.

Source checked 2026-10-15. Owner confirmation remains outstanding. Not a complete quotation.

What this does not include

  • Operating float is held on account outside fees: at least the published amount, with the actual amount to be agreed. It is not exact cash due or a promise of full refund.
  • Pre-tenancy works: Not specified in the published schedule. Quote required. Unknown costs are not zero.
  • Repairs, certificates, inventory, checkout, taxes, lost rent, legal work and discounts are not calculated.
  • No voids or arrears are deducted from rent due. No net income, yield, savings or payment schedule is estimated.
  • Charges from one fee section do not establish prices or free services in another. Renewal and part-year registration billing need confirmation. Cancellation is a separate scenario; combining it with other fees is not established.
