Torn apart - the letting fee is shown below (4,7)

I believe the answer is:

rent asunder

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'letting fee is shown below' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'torn apart' is the wordplay.
'torn' becomes 'rent' (synonyms).
'apart' becomes 'asunder' (synonyms).
'rent'+'asunder'='RENT ASUNDER'

'the' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
