Earnings Calculator
See what your referrals could earn you
Add the vacant commercial properties you could introduce to VacatAd — we’ll run each one through the live 2026/27 rates calculator and show you your 25% revenue share on every referral. Submit the form below and we’ll reach out to finalise your affiliate partnership.
Add the properties you’d refer
Search by postcode or address. We pull the rateable value straight from the VOA rating list so your estimate mirrors the actual VacatAd calculation.
Tip: add several assets from the same owner or portfolio — it gives us a better sense of the opportunity when we get in touch.
Your referable portfolio
Each property shows the VacatAd fee and your 25% share. Tick Industrial if a property qualifies for the 6‑month void relief period — it changes the calculation.
Submit your enquiry
Tell us who you are and we’ll come back to you with next steps, including onboarding you onto the tracking portal. Your calculated figures are attached to the enquiry automatically.
By submitting, you agree to the VacatAd team contacting you about the affiliate programme. We’ll never share your details with third parties.
Who This Is For
The strongest partners are already trusted by commercial property decision-makers. If clients ask you about empty rates, vacant property risk, or how to protect value during a void period, this programme was built for you.
Surveyors & Advisors
Offer clients a practical next step when rate liability, beneficial occupation strategy or vacant property positioning becomes a live issue.
Asset Managers & Lenders
Support owners with a commercially relevant intervention that can reduce holding costs while maintaining future letting flexibility.
Insolvency & Restructuring Specialists
Introduce VacatAd where vacant sites are creating cost drag, covenant pressure or a need for immediate, compliant operational action.
What Makes a Strong Referral
Not every introduction is equal. The best opportunities typically involve a genuine cost problem, a live vacancy issue, and a decision-maker who needs a compliant route forward rather than a speculative idea.
Vacant Offices & Retail
Units sitting empty after lease expiry, administration, relocation, downsizing or portfolio repositioning.
Industrial & Logistics Voids
Assets where holding costs are rising and owners want to preserve flexibility while reducing rates exposure.
Portfolio-Level Pressure
Funds, REITs, asset managers and property companies carrying multiple voids across a wider estate.
Advisory-Led Opportunities
Landlords asking brokers, surveyors, insolvency teams or lenders how to contain costs without reputational or compliance risk.
