No. Nothing on this page estimates what your property is worth or what it would rent for. You supply the figures and we do the arithmetic on them. If you want a view on price, get two or three local agents out for a free valuation — they'll come, and you're under no obligation.

Average house prices are from HM Land Registry's UK House Price Index. Average rents are from the ONS Price Index of Private Rents. Fee ranges are taken from published agent tariffs and industry fee guides. Every figure on the page is dated, and we review them monthly. We haven't used any of our own customer data, because we've only just launched and we don't have enough of it to average honestly. When we do, we'll publish it.

Yes. The £179 is paid when you list, not when you complete, and it isn't refundable once your listing is live. We'd rather say that plainly here than bury it in the terms. The reason is straightforward. No sale, no fee works because the agent prices the risk of failed sales into everybody's commission. We aren't taking a percentage, so there's nothing to price it into. Your listing runs for twelve months and nothing renews automatically at the end of it.

For the listing, yes — the page, the floor plan, the board and flyer artwork, the QR code, the Property Information Pack, Propeo Writer and the Owner Hub are all in it, for twelve months. There are optional extras some owners choose — a surveyor-drawn floor plan, a new EPC, professional photography — and every one of them is listed with its price on the pricing page before you pay anything. Nothing is added at checkout.

It can, and this is the honest risk. Sale price is driven mostly by how the property is priced and how many buyers see it. Get either wrong and you can lose more than the fee you saved. What you can control: price it against real sold prices rather than hope, write a description that answers questions instead of using adjectives, take good photographs in decent light, and share the listing everywhere you can. The Owner Hub walks through all four.

Yes — drag the rate slider up. Multi-agency agreements typically run at 2% to 3.5% plus VAT, roughly double sole agency, because only the agent who finds the buyer gets paid and each of them prices in the chance of losing.

Both conventions are in use and they're easy to confuse. Tenant find is usually quoted as a percentage of the first year's rent, commonly 8% to 12%, or as a flat multiple of one month's rent. Full management is quoted as a percentage of the monthly rent and runs for the life of the tenancy. They aren't comparable numbers, which is why the calculator treats them separately.
