Every certificate, rent and repair, in one place.

You did not become a landlord to chase gas engineers and dig through emails for an electrical report. We build landlords a simple system that keeps every home's paperwork, rent and repairs in order, and tells you what needs doing before it becomes a problem.

Being a good landlord is a lot of admin.

Most landlords we speak to run their homes well. They just do it from memory, a spreadsheet and a phone full of messages, and that gets harder with every new rule.

Somewhere in your inbox

Certificates by memory

Gas every year, electrics every five, energy ratings, alarms and deposits. One missed date can stop you serving notice or put a tenant at risk.

A text at 11pm

Repairs by message

Photos in WhatsApp, the contractor's quote in email and no record of when you were told, which is exactly what you need if there is ever a dispute.

The bank statement

Rent checked by hand

Matching payments to tenants each month, then rebuilding the whole year for your tax return, now with quarterly updates for many landlords.

New rules every few months

Paperwork that keeps changing

New tenancy terms, rent increase notices, a national landlord register on the way. Each change is more to track for every home you own.

Know where every home stands, at a glance.

One screen for every certificate, licence and deposit, worked out against today's date. Green means done, amber means soon, red means now.

Reminders that go to the right person

You, your managing agent or the engineer who does the work, by email, in good time.

Copies to tenants, logged

Gas and electrical reports sent to tenants and the date recorded, so you can show you did it.

Documents in one safe place

Every certificate, tenancy and inventory stored against the right home, found in seconds.

Ready to register

Gas, electrical and energy evidence held and dated for each home, ready for the new landlord register.

The rules you are working under now.

The biggest change to renting in England in over thirty years arrived on 1 May 2026, and more dates are coming. Here is what matters for a private landlord, and where software takes the strain.

In force since 1 May 2026In force

Renters' Rights Act: the new tenancy system

Most private tenancies in England became assured periodic tenancies with no fixed end date, new and existing alike. Section 21 no-fault evictions ended, possession now uses section 8 grounds and Form 3A, and new tenants must get the key terms in writing.

England
Tenancy dates, the written terms and every notice served are recorded against each home and tenant.

In force since 1 May 2026In force

Rent increases once a year, on Form 4A

Rent can rise only once a year, and not in the first year, using Form 4A with at least two months' notice. Tenants can ask the First-tier Tribunal to decide, and rent review clauses no longer work.

England
Each tenancy's last increase and the earliest date for the next Form 4A are worked out for you.

Planned from 15 Dec 2026Coming

Private Rented Sector Database

Landlords will register themselves and every let home, with gas, electrical and energy certificate evidence. Regions are planned to open in turn, from the West Midlands on 15 December 2026, with London from 15 July to 14 October 2027. The regulations still need Parliament's approval, and the government's planned fee is £65 per property per year. The landlord starts each registration, and an appointed letting agent can supply the property details.

England
Certificates are held and dated for every home, so registering each one is quick and nothing is missing.

Expected 2028Coming

A Landlord Ombudsman for every private landlord

All private landlords will have to join a new ombudsman that settles tenants' complaints with binding decisions, including compensation. Membership is expected to become compulsory in 2028, with notice beforehand.

England
Every repair, message and visit is timed and logged, ready to show if a complaint is ever raised.

Every 12 months and 5 yearsIn force

Gas every year, electrics every five

A Gas Safe registered engineer must check gas appliances every 12 months, with the record to tenants within 28 days. Electrical installations must be inspected at least every five years, with reports to tenants within 28 days and fines of up to £40,000.

England
Both dates are tracked for every home, reminders go out in good time, and copies to tenants are logged.

Within 30 days of receiptIn force

Deposits protected within 30 days

Deposits must be protected in a government-approved scheme within 30 days, with the prescribed information given in the same period. Since 1 May 2026 an unprotected deposit also blocks a possession order.

England
Protection dates, scheme references and the prescribed information are recorded for every tenancy.

Band C planned by 1 Oct 2030Proposed

Minimum energy ratings

Rented homes in England and Wales must be EPC band E or better unless an exemption is registered. The government has decided to raise this to band C for all tenancies by 1 October 2030, with a £10,000 cost cap per property, but the regulations are not yet law.

Each home's rating and expiry are tracked, with upgrade quotes and costs logged against the cap.

Consultation closes 18 Dec 2026Proposed

Awaab's Law for private tenancies

Social landlords already face fixed deadlines to investigate and fix hazards such as damp and mould. The government is consulting on extending this to private tenancies, including how quickly emergencies must be dealt with. Scotland's version has applied to private landlords since 6 October 2026.

Repair reports can run on clocks, with every access attempt logged, so deadlines are visible to everyone.

Questions landlords ask us.

Anything else, ask us on the call.

I only have two properties. Is this overkill?
Not if it is built to the right size. For one or two homes we usually start with a compliance tracker and a simple tenant portal, which takes the worry out of certificates and repairs without adding work. You can add more later.
Can my tenants report repairs with photos?
Yes. Tenants get their own login on their phone, report a repair with photos and see when it is booked. Every report is timed from the moment it arrives, so you have a clear record of what you were told and when.
Will it help with Making Tax Digital?
It keeps your rental income and costs in the quarterly shape Making Tax Digital asks for, with receipts attached, so you or your accountant can send the updates from HMRC-recognised software quickly. We do not file with HMRC for you.
Do you collect rent or hold deposits?
No. Rent goes straight to your own bank account, and deposits must be protected in one of the government-approved schemes. The software shows what has been paid and what is due, and records when a deposit was protected.
What if I use a letting agent for some homes?
That works well. Your agent can be given their own login for the homes they manage, so certificates and repairs stay visible to you without chasing emails.
My homes are in Wales or Scotland. Does it still work?
Yes. The rules are different in each nation, so we set up the right certificates, contract types and registrations for where each home is, for example Rent Smart Wales or Scottish landlord registration.
Is my data and my tenants' data safe?
Yes. Sign-in is done properly, each person only sees what their role allows, and everything is backed up. We sign a data processing agreement with you, because you remain responsible for your tenants' data.
