Sulets Premium Service
You lease your property to Sulets for a fixed term.
Sulets will then sub-let your property to a group of tenants and take over the day-to-day management of the property. Your property will be returned to you at the end of the lease empty and in a similar condition to the start of the lease, allowing for fair wear and tear. The service is meant to be fully inclusive for property owners and tenants.
There is no set up fee or management fee. The Landlord agrees to let the property to Sulets, when Sulets has found suitable prospective occupiers. Instead of a set up and management fee the agent is entitled to keep the difference between the rent reserved by the lease and the rent payable by the occupiers.
In addition, £20 per person per week will be charged to the tenant to cover bills.
We charge 10% + VAT on the total cost of any repair for the commissioning, checking and invoicing of the repairs for Premium service properties.
Any certificates are charged separately – see table below.
Sulets Managed Service
Sulets will rent the property for you, collecting the rent and dealing with all the day-to-day management issues on your behalf.
With this service, once your property is let, Sulets will manage the property. We’ll take care of the tenancy agreements, deposit collection, chasing rent, and minor repairs.
We charge 10% + VAT on the total cost of any repair for the commissioning, checking and invoicing of the repairs for managed service properties.
Any certificates are charged separately – see table below.
