I believe the answer is:

service charge

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

'tip' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to property as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'overhaul to run' is the wordplay.
'overhaul' becomes 'service' (synonyms).
'to run' becomes 'charge' ().
'service'+'charge'='SERVICE CHARGE'

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for service charge that I've seen before include "Part of bill" , "Restaurant may have one" , "Restaurant bill add-on" , "A bistro may make one" , "Maintenance fee on leased property" .)
