Three ways to pay, the same in Linlithgow as everywhere
IOur lowest rate
Paid Up Front
Our lowest rate, settled in one payment at launch, and the sale itself costs you nothing more.
0.75%
of the Home Report valuation, at launch
Nothing further at settlement
- Your commitment
- Settled in full at launch, then we market it until it sells
- On a £250,000 valuation, for example
- £2,000 in total, all of it at launchOur £2,000 minimum applies up to £266,667, so that is your fee here, known to the pound before marketing begins.
One payment, at the lowest rate we publish, and the sale itself costs you nothing further however much it fetches. It is charged on the surveyor's valuation, which is settled before any marketing begins, so you know your fee in pounds from the first day. If the sale takes longer than expected we keep marketing, with no time limit and nothing more to pay.
II
Part Up Front
One payment towards the marketing at launch, and a lower rate when the sale settles.
1%
of the sale price, at settlement
Plus £595 at launch, paid once
- Your commitment
- £595 at launch, and the rest only on a sale
- On a £250,000 sale, for example
- £595 at launch and £2,500 at settlement, £3,095 in total
One payment at launch buys the marketing, and the rest waits for the sale at a lower rate. The £595 is paid once and buys that marketing outright, so it is the whole of what launching your home ever costs you.
III
No Sale, No Fee
Nothing to pay until the sale settles, when the fee comes straight out of the proceeds.
1.5%
of the sale price, at settlement
Nothing at launch
- Your commitment
- Nothing at all until the sale settles
- On a £250,000 sale, for example
- £3,750 in total, at settlement
We carry the whole cost of the marketing and take our fee from the proceeds when the sale settles. That is what the higher rate covers: the sale pays for everything, and nothing leaves your pocket before it does.
Our fees include VAT at 20%. Nothing is added to the figures shown.
