Some useful information

Agent Fees

Agent fees are input by agents themselves. Some fees may be approximate or based on averages. Your circumstances (i.e. number of properties or property size) may impact the fees charges by agents. What each agent offers under each service may differ. For example some agents offer viewing under their tenant find only service, whereas others may charge for viewings.

Metrics

Average prices for let or sales, and average time to let or sell a property are updated periodically. Metrics may be out of date or altered to accommodate circumstances of properties under management by the agent (i.e. short term lets or vacant rooms in a HMO)

Not impartial

Our platform is not impartial. We are paid by agents either in the form of a subscription fee or other payment model.
