Fees
Except for sales, our fees are due and payable upon signing a
lease contract or taking possession of a house, apartment/ flat,
or office or retail space.
The landlord usually pays our fees for retail
and office space rentals. However, in some cases, the tenant
pays the fees, or the fees are split between the landlord and
the tenant.
Larger commercial projects are usually listed
exclusively with commercial leasing agents. In these cases, the
landlord pays all of the agency fees.
In cases where prospective tenants want
an agent to represent them and to search for a specific type of
property, the tenants will retain an agent and pay an agency fee.
All fees are subject to 19% VAT.
