At haus Estate Agents, we are able to offer a variety of services and products related to the moving process that are provided by third party companies. We believe in being transparent in declaring these commissions so that our customers can make informed choices. Examples of these services can be from recommending a solicitor to use for conveyancing or a surveyor to check the suitability of your proposed purchase. To less visible products such as rent guarantee insurance. At haus Estate Agents, we are often remunerated by the companies that provide these services by being paid a referral commission. The companies involved should not add the fee to their standard charges and there should therefore be no adverse effect on the end users’ costs. We consider that the companies have been chosen primarily not on the referral commission but on their track record of providing a quality service to our clients. Where haus Estate Agents provide some administration aspect to a product such as arranging an EPC or rent guarantee and the cost is charged as a haus Estate Agents invoice, then our fee will be added to the supplier’s invoice and the cost of the product will be confirmed prior to purchase. Below is a list of the related services that we provide, along with the related commissions likely to be paid to haus Estate Agents for the referral. Where some services are price specific or the supplier costs vary, we have put a range. Where the related parties are VAT registered then the prevailing rate of VAT will be applied in addition to the fee. For conveyancing services through Dezrez Legal, fees payable are based on a set basis. For a purchase or sale the referral fee of £200.00 is received, if you use Dezrez Legal on both sale and purchase £200.00 will be paid for each individual transaction. For conveyancing services via Stephens & Son Solicitors no referral fee is payable. We receive commission from The Residential Mortgage Hub mortgage services on any referral we make to them, haus Estate Agents receive a fixed fee of £200 upon application of the mortgage. At haus Estate Agents, we also refer to MAP surveyors when customers ask us to recommend a surveyor. The referral fee payable in this instance is £41.67.
