Are You Overpaying for Property Management? Compare with Letlilo's Fixed Fees
In today’s market, every cost matters. Rising mortgage rates, evolving regulations, and inflation-driven maintenance bills are squeezing UK landlords from all sides. Whether you manage a single rental or a growing portfolio, it’s never been more important to examine where your money’s going – and how much value you’re really getting in return.
One cost many landlords overlook? Letting agent management fees.
If you’re still paying a traditional, percentage-based fee, you might be losing more than you think. At Letlilo, we’re helping landlords cut unnecessary costs and take back control with a fully-managed, fixed-fee model that’s designed for the modern rental market.
Percentage-Based Fees – The Silent Profit Killer
For decades, percentage-based property management has been the industry norm. Most high-street agents charge 10–15% of your monthly rent. On the surface, this might seem reasonable. But look closer and it becomes clear how much these fees eat into your long-term profits.
You pay more when your rent increases, even if the service doesn’t improve
Extra charges for tenancy renewals, inspections, and admin tasks are common
There's no incentive for agents to run things efficiently – they benefit from rent inflation, not performance
For example, if you rent out a property at £1,500/month, a 12% agent fee costs you £180/month – that’s £2,160/year just for managing one property. Over several properties or years, this becomes a major drain on your returns.

At Letlilo, we think landlords deserve better. Our model is simple – one fixed monthly fee for full-service property management, regardless of your rental income. No percentage charges. No hidden extras. Just a clear, predictable cost.

Why Letlilo Doesn’t Believe in Percentage-Based Pricing

That’s why our pricing is based on service, not your rental income.
Predictable monthly costs – Know what you’ll pay every month
Performance-based pricing – Our value is tied to results, not rent levels
Scalable – Add properties without multiplying your costs
