Residential Lettings:
Whether you're a landlord with a single property, or corporate landlord with multiple units, we can tailor a service to suit your needs. We cover all of Manchester and most of Cheshire, please get in touch to discuss the options available.
Our pricing is as follows and includes VAT:
Tenants
To secure your property we take a holding deposit equivalent to one week's rent, this is put towards your total deposit (a maximum of five weeks rent) once reference checks have been approved and your move date set.
Should any information be withheld from Stevenson Whyte that results in you failing reference checks then unfortunately the deposit is non-refundable. Examples of this would be undeclared adverse credit (CCJs, arrears, bankruptcy) or falsifying information regarding your current living arrangements or employment. All adverse credit must be declared in writing (via email) whether satisfied or unsatisfied, so that permission to continue from the landlord can be sought before receiving the holding deposit.
At the end of your tenancy any cleaning and repairs are charged directly from the contractor, we DO NOT receive any commission or benefit from the contractor and would much prefer that the property is simply left clean. Should the property be left deliberately in a poor state a charge of £75 may be applied to help towards the time and administration required in resolving the issues.
Landlords
All pricing includes VAT at the current rate of 20%; if comparing our pricing with other agents please check whether they quote inclusive or exclusive of this.
Our fully managed service is priced at 10%, a set up fee of £575 applies for a new tenancy, there are no hidden fees or costs. This includes full written and photographic inventory, all tenancy paperwork and moving in/out of tenants. It is a fully inclusive service. We do not charge a fee to renew a tenancy or add any commission to repairs needed during the tenancy.
Should you wish to self manage your property but require assistance in sourcing the tenant, our let only service is priced at £675. Compilation of a written and photographic inventory will cost £75. Additional insurance services are also available if required, we do not push or hard sell, simply choose what you feel would benefit you most.
