Rental charges depend on the property and the services involved. Explore how property costs, Hauslett service charges, inspection fees and payment processing fit together before you commit.
Each charge has a purpose. Your listing and payment summary should show the applicable amounts before you confirm.
These are property-related charges. They are payable directly to the property owner, landlord or authorised rent-money recipient identified by the agent or property manager who listed the property. Confirm the recipient and payment instructions before making a payment.
The agent or property professional who lists the property sets the agent fee shown on that listing. Check the amount before booking an inspection or proceeding with the rental.
This supports Hauslett's rental coordination and operational services. The applicable charge is calculated under the Hauslett pricing policy and shown in the listing's itemised breakdown.
The inspection fee is paid when the inspection is booked. Where applicable, a payment-processing fee is shown separately before payment authorisation. An eligible Commitment Credit reduces the service charge, not the property owner's charges.
Hauslett applies the relevant service-charge rate to each rental listing. The rate may vary by property, and the applicable amount is shown in the listing breakdown.
| Applicable service-charge rate | 5% |
|---|---|
| Additional fixed service charge | ₦5,000 |
The service charge is calculated against the property package (rent + caution deposit + legal fee), using the applicable rate for the listing. Where the policy includes a fixed component, that amount is added. The live example below shows the amount calculated for an actual published rental listing.
When the Commitment Credit policy applies, the inspection fee paid for an inspection may be deducted from eligible Hauslett service charges for the same property. It is not a deduction from rent, caution deposit or legal fees. The credit is subject to the eligibility period, eligible-property limit and other policy conditions.
The fee for your selected property is shown before you confirm an inspection booking. The amount may depend on the listing and the inspection pricing policy.
This is the inspection fee calculated for the live listing used in the example below. Your selected listing may have a different fee.
Under the Commitment Credit policy, an eligible inspection fee may be deducted from Hauslett's service charge when you proceed with the same property.
| Eligibility period | 10 days |
|---|---|
| Eligible-property limit | 1 eligible property |
| Maximum deduction | Up to the eligible service charge |
It does not reduce rent, caution deposit, legal fees or the agent's fee. The deduction cannot exceed the eligible Hauslett service charge. The credit is subject to validation, expiry and the other terms of the policy.
Agents and property professionals set their own agent fees for their rental listings. Hauslett applies a separate platform deduction to the agent fee under its pricing policy.
Hauslett retains 10% of the agent fee as its platform deduction. The balance of the agent fee, after this deduction, is the agent commission. This deduction is separate from the renter's Hauslett service charge.
If an agent fee is ₦10,000 and the applicable Hauslett deduction is 10%, Hauslett's deduction is ₦1,000. The remaining agent commission is ₦9,000 and is paid to the agent's bank details provided.
Hauslett coordinates parts of the rental process, including property verification, inspection coordination and structured communication around the transaction. These operations require time, fieldwork and platform resources.
Property verification is part of Hauslett's operational process. It is not a guarantee against every possible issue with a property.
This example uses a live published listing and the existing Hauslett pricing engine—not a manually invented sample price.
Based on the published listing and Hauslett's current pricing policy.
Commitment Credit illustration: the deduction shown assumes the renter qualifies and that the credit is valid for this same property. It is capped at the applicable Hauslett service charge. Actual credit application requires verification under the Commitment Credit policy. The inspection fee is shown as already paid at booking and is not charged again at final securing.
