What's the difference between housing trusteeship and housing agency?
The income of housing trust companies mainly comes from two aspects: on the one hand, the time difference. Generally, when a landlord signs an agreement with a housing trust company, there will be a rent-free period of one to three months, that is, the housing trust company will find a renter in the first few months without charging rent. And the general housing trust company has sufficient information about customers and customers, and generally rents out the house in about ten days. On the other hand, the price difference. Generally, it takes one year for a landlord to sign an agreement with a housing trust company, that is, at least one year. However, if the rental business is good this year, the rent may rise, thus earning the difference, but the profit is very meager.
Housing agency: an institution that provides real estate appraisal, brokerage and consulting services for the consumer market. In the leasing market, it mainly provides consulting services between tenants and owners. At the same time, this kind of service is paid and needs reasonable remuneration. There are a large number of housing intermediary houses, some of which are directly placed by the owners in the intermediary; Some real estate developers entrust their houses to intermediaries and intermediary companies for rent, and charge a certain fee.
Business model:
Generally, the hosting company hosts the rough house from the owner (generally, the hosting period is more than 3 years), and the hosting company rents it out after renovation. And bear the risks of daily management, maintenance service, dispute resolution, rent collection and vacant period in the middle of the house.
After the housing agent shows the tenant the house, the agent informs the landlord and signs the contract directly with the landlord. The tenant's follow-up questions about the house are directly connected with the landlord and have nothing to do with the intermediary company.
Charge standard:
House custody: Generally, it is directly rented by the custody company, and there is no agency fee.
Housing agency: Some agencies are tenants. After signing the contract successfully, both the landlord and the owner have to pay 50% of one month's rent to the intermediary.
Whether looking for a housing trust company or an intermediary to rent a house, the first thing you need to confirm is the location and area of the house you want to rent, and then choose the most favorable way to rent according to your actual situation.
