In addition to the above, the following is a list of additional services which can be offered along with the fee which a trusted third party contractor (“Third Party”) will charge for this service. Please be advised that whilst an estimate of the Third Party’s fees are provided for standard works, these fees are subject to change. Works which are not routine will be subject to their own fees. The Agent will not be responsible for the fees quoted or charged by the Third Party, though the Agent will provide the Owner with an estimate of costs before instructing work and seek the appropriate authority to proceed, unless such authority has already been given within this Agreement. Where the Third Party fee is not known, the field will read ‘TBC’ or similar, or be left blank.
