## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 13 of the 48 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 35 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 3 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in % (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 315 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per agent per branch per service tier: the headline percentage, whether it is quoted inclusive or exclusive of VAT (the single largest source of confusion in this market and a difference of a fifth), the minimum fee, the set-up fee, and the named extras - renewal, inventory, inspection, deposit registration, notice drafting. Across them the figures nobody publishes: the median and spread of the all-in annual cost at a real local rent level, by region and by tier; the share of agents that publish a schedule at all; the gap between the advertised percentage and the effective percentage once minimums and set-up fees are amortised over a twelve-month tenancy; and repriced-since.
