Landlord Fees Explained

Our landlord services are designed to make letting and managing your property straightforward. Below you can find a clear breakdown of our service fees, what is included and the total payable where VAT applies.

How Our Charges Work

ABC Gone Ltd is VAT registered. VAT at 20% applies to applicable letting, management, administration and arrangement services.

Residential rent itself is not subject to VAT. Where our fee is calculated as a percentage or number of weeks of rent, VAT applies only to the ABC Gone service fee.

Third-party costs, including council, court, contractor and insurance charges, may be payable separately.
