LANDLORD

Who decides what the monthly rental income will be?
  Our commission is a percentage of the rental income we achieve for you, and therefore we market your space to achieve as high a fee as possible. However in all circumstances, you are asked to agree to this figure before any contract is made with a tenant.
 BACK TO TOP

How much commission does Park Let Ltd charge?
  15% (+ VAT) of the gross monthly rental fee. Also for the first month only we charge an additional £25 (+ VAT) admin fee.

How do I cancel my contract?
  Notice of cancellation must be given in writing to info@parklet.co.uk. Upon receipt of your notice, we will reply advising of your cancellation date, being the last day the Tenant can use the space. The notice period required is detailed within your Lease Agreement.

Do I have to pay tax on this extra income?
  We are aware of certain tax breaks associated with rental income procured through the letting of part of a residential home, but we suggest you speak with your accountant.
 BACK TO TOP

What measures are in place to protect me from any risks associated in renting out a space?
  The terms and conditions have been professionally constructed to protect you. For example; a) The tenants contract states that he/she leaves their vehicle at their own risk (as per a normal car park), b) The tenant is held liable for any damage they may cause to your property c) We ensure that the tenant signs that they hold a valid third party motor insurance certificate – so that they have the funds available in the unlikely event of (b).

Can I have an Invoice please?
  Please e-mail info@parklet.co.uk and our customer service team will be able to produce your invoices.
 BACK TO TOP

What if as a one off, I need the space to be free e.g. taking delivery of large goods?
  You will have the tenant’s contact details for you to discuss your requirements with them directly. In most cases we find that the landlord simply offers to pay the local “Pay & Display” charges as an alternative for the day or two they require the space to be free.
 BACK TO TOP

What happens if the tenant doesn’t pay and continues to park in my space?
  It is Park Let Ltd’s responsibility to collect the money from the tenant and pay you the landlord. In the event of non-payment the tenant will be immediately issued with a cancellation notice with you the landlord being advised of the situation. If in the unlikely event that the tenant continues to park in your space this will be an illegal act and we will assist you in taking further action i.e. notifying local police authorities, utilising local wheel clamp operators.
