Tenant search only

The company charges 8% + VAT of the term’s rent as a fee for finding a tenant.  This is less than one months’ rent for a 12 month lease.  For this we will visit to determine the rent level, take photographs, create a description, find an acceptable tenant and create an inventory, lease and AT5.

Rent collection only

The company charges 4% + VAT of the monthly rent to collect, chase and to pay you the rent.
