Dear Messrs Robinson

Re: 137d Eglinton Hill, London, SE18 3DU

I am writing to thank you for considering Foxtons to act as your agent in the letting of the above property and
to confirm the details of our conversation.

Recommended Asking Price

Having fully considered the local market activity and taken into account all aspects of your property, including
its general condition and the location, we would recommend placing the property on the market at an asking
price of £2,000.00 (Two Thousand Pounds) per month for a long let and an asking price of £875.00 (Eight
Hundred and Seventy Five Pounds) per week for a short let. For example:

 A 12 month managed long let with commission fees of 17.00% for this price would be £4,080.00 +
VAT (£4,896.00 inc VAT).
 A 12 month non-managed long let with commission fees of 11.00% for this price would be
£2,640.00 + VAT (£3,168.00 inc VAT).
 A 90 day managed short let with commission fees of 26.00% for this price would be £2,925.00 +
VAT (£3,510.00 inc VAT).

Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

It is a legal requirement that you commission (i.e. book and pay for) an EPC before the marketing of your
property can commence. Your agent must receive a copy of the resulting EPC within 28 days of instruction, and
it must have a minimum band E rating. If you do not already have a valid EPC then Foxtons can organise this
for you through an approved supplier who will charge you directly at the competitive rate of £150 inc VAT.
Once complete the EPC is valid for 10 years.

If you already have a valid EPC please send it to us via email on epc@foxtons.co.uk. If you are not sure whether
you have an EPC, or whether it is valid, you can check the national EPC register at www.epcregister.com.
Licences
It is important to be aware that each local authority operates its own licensing system and some may require
the landlord to hold a residential rental licence before they can let out their property. If you are required to
have a licence and do not hold one the penalties can be significant. We therefore recommend that you check
directly with your local council to ascertain whether licensing will apply, exactly what is required and to see if
there are any specific restrictions such as a limit on the number of people permitted to occupy the premises.

Marketing
At Foxtons, we are renowned for our comprehensive marketing initiatives and our ability to achieve rapid
results. The appropriate presentation and marketing of your property is fundamental to a successful result and
of paramount importance in achieving the maximum price. We take immense pride in ensuring that every
property is presented in the best-possible light and marketed where appropriate quickly and efficiently. Our
unique in-house team of Protographers (Professional Property Processors) compile all the information needed
to comprehensively display your property both on and off-line within days, at no cost to you.
