The Nitty Gritty (Big Bang Theory Edition) As part of the community, we’ve carried out a suitably “scientific” process to identify the best professionals for the job. If we recommend someone, it’s in good faith that they’ll keep things running as smoothly as possible.

For transparency (because even Sheldon would insist), a small number of these parties—though certainly not the majority—may occasionally pay us a referral fee of up to £200. The choice, however, is entirely yours, and you’re under no obligation to use anyone we suggest.

If your offer on one of our properties is accepted and you proceed, there’s an administration charge of £36 (inc. VAT) per person to complete Anti-Money Laundering checks. This fee is non-refundable—much like a firmly held scientific conclusion.
