I just feel a fee for withdrawing your property from the market is unusual and unfair. It smacks of unfair practice too.

Comment on agent fees
I have not rented with any other agent before so perhaps it is common place but Taylor Made will sting you every step of the way in terms of fees. You can only sign a 6 month contract when you move in, as I was there for the year I had to pay almost £200 after the 6 months was up to renew the contract.
