Letting in Crystal Palace
What to check before you pick an agent in Crystal Palace.
The headline rate is only the start. These four checks show what each agent will really cost you.
The fee in pounds, with VAT
Most landlords can't reclaim VAT on residential lets, so compare the VAT-inclusive rate. On a London rent, the gap between 12% and 20.4% is worth about £2,350 a year.
The extras on top
Tenancy paperwork fees, monthly compliance charges and fees for serving the yearly rent increase notice can add hundreds of pounds. Ask for the full fee schedule in writing.
Which council you're in
Croydon, Lambeth, Bromley and Southwark all meet around Crystal Palace, and each runs its own licensing schemes. Check which council covers your address before you let or switch agent.
Reviews, and how many there are
A 4.9 rating from 20 reviews isn't the same as a 4.9 from 1,000. Your comparison shows the rating and the number of reviews behind it.

Questions
Letting agents in Crystal Palace, explained.
How much do letting agents charge in Crystal Palace?
Across London, the agents we checked publish full-management fees of 12% to 20.4% of the rent including VAT. Big-name agents sit at the top of that range and local independents usually charge less. Your comparison shows the published fees of the agents that cover your address.
Do I need a licence to let in Crystal Palace?
It depends on which council covers your address. Croydon runs selective licensing in parts of the borough, and Lambeth, Bromley and Southwark each have their own rules. Check the right council's scheme before you let or switch agent.
Can I change letting agent mid-tenancy?
Yes. Check your contract's notice period, exit fee and any commission on tenants the agent found. If your agent is the named licence holder, speak to the council first, because a licence can't be transferred.
Is the comparison free?
Yes. Enter your address and sign in with your email so we can send you the report. We compare the agents near your property at no cost, and nothing is sent to an agent.
