Referral fees:

All fees include VAT

We may offer our Clients referrals to other service providers, from which we may earn a commission or referral fee directly from the service provider. This isn’t charged to the Client, so you won’t pay a single penny to be referred!

This is common business practice and won’t be charged to you. However, we think it’s only right to make these referral fees fully transparent.

  • £300.00 (approx.) per referral from Heron Financial
  • £80.00 (approx.) per referral from LEA surveyors
  • £120.00 per referral from Setfords Solicitors LLP
  • £125.00 per referral from Simply Conveyancing
  • Up to 10% referral fee from building contractors for arranging works

You’re not under any obligation whatsoever to use the services of any of our recommended providers. However, should you accept our recommendation the provider is expected to pay us the corresponding Referral Fee. The Referral fee is, of course, separate from your obligation to pay our own fees or commission.

We would never work with a service provider or contractor based upon their referral fee. We only work with service providers and contractors that we believe do an excellent job, are compliant and abide by our Ethics & Good Standards Charter. Have a look at our promise to you here.
