Additional terms for landlords who select any viewings, valuations, tenancy administration, rent collection and/or property management services apply. In the event that you expressly request and JMHA expressly agrees to provide you with Services which include tenancy administration, rent collection and/or property management, the following terms will apply.

Fees

You will pay us the applicable fee listed on this Website (as amended from time to time) at the time of your order of the relevant Services (plus any applicable taxes (including any value added tax)). Fees are payable in GB pounds sterling using PayPal via this Website at such frequency as listed on this Website in respect of the relevant Services. We may choose to change the fees temporarily for Our Services for promotional events or new Services, and such changes are effective during the period set out on the relevant page of this Website.

Fees are to be collected upfront by debit/credit card for Tenancy Administration, Valuations and Viewings. JMHA reserves the right to charge tenants fees in respect of referencing at £50 plus VAT per reference required (each tenant is referenced individually and if there is a guarantor involved as well they are also referenced and charged). All tenancy agreements will be drawn up using JMHA's standard tenancy agreement and on the basis of the information supplied by the landlord. JMHA does not hold any responsibly for any errors in the agreement due to faulty or missing information. As per 'landlord responsibilities' JMHA accepts no responsibility for gas safety unless we are appointed to manage the property and in particular it is not our responsibility to ensure that a valid gas safety certificate is in place before initial occupation.

JMHA will carry out the management of the property on the basis of the information supplied by the landlord. JMHA is not responsible for any errors or misrepresentations in the information provided by the landlord to a tenant.

Your property will be advertised until let for a maximum of 6 weeks from the listing date after which time we shall render an upfront monthly charge of £50 plus VAT until such time as you either pause your listing or advise us to stop advertising your property.

JMHA may telephone or email you with offers of additional services which we offer. If you order additional services over the telephone, we will follow-up that telephone call with an email to confirm your wish to purchase those services and send you periodic invoices once we have started providing services to you. Should you wish to purchase services online via this website, we will send you an email confirmation. We will send you periodic invoices once we have started providing services to you.

You agree that we may at any time set off your payment to JMHA for any additional services you purchase against monies collected from your tenants by JMHA. These Terms and Conditions apply to any additional Services which you may order from Us.

We reserve the right to reject, at our sole discretion, any property listing even if we have acknowledged receipt of payment and taken payment from you.

Limitation of Liability for Services

We shall not be liable for any failure in, or delay in, performing the Services to the extent directly prevented or delayed by;

any information and documentation provided to us by you or on your behalf or by any of your tenants in relation to the Services

any information and documentation provided to us by you or on your behalf or by any of your tenants in relation to the Services

any instructions provided to us by you or on your behalf or by any of your tenants being materially incomplete, inaccurate, illegible, out of sequence or in the wrong form, or arising from their material late delivery or non-delivery

any failure by you to comply with your obligations as expressly set out in any description of the relevant Services listed on this Website (as amended from time to time) (the "Services Description")

any act or omission by the tenants of your property. It is your responsibility to ensure that your tenants cooperate with us to allow us to provide the Services. We reserve the right not to deal with uncooperative tenants and to suspend Our Services in relation to an affected property altogether or for such period as We in Our absolute discretion shall determine.

For the avoidance of doubt, We shall have no liability (including without limitation to you or to any of your tenants) in respect of gas certification, save to the extent expressly included in the relevant Services Description.

We do not limit liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or death and personal injury arising from Our negligence. We (including Our affiliates, officers, directors, agents, subcontractors and employees) will not be liable to you in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise for indirect or consequential loss incurred or suffered by you or any third party (including without limitation any of your tenants) in connection with the receipt of any Services.
