Starting as a landlord can feel overwhelming

You want to do things properly, but there's so much to learn. We understand.

"What certificates do I actually need?"

Gas safety, EICR, EPC, smoke alarms... the list seems endless. And each has different rules and renewal periods.

"Is my tenancy agreement even legal?"

Templates from the internet might be outdated. Missing clauses could mean you can't evict problem tenants.

"I don't want to get fined for something I didn't know"

Penalties for non-compliance can be thousands of pounds. Some mistakes can't be undone.

"I don't have time to become an expert"

You have a job, a life. You need clear, simple guidance - not hours of research.

Ask any question in plain English

Confused about something? Just ask. Our AI assistant knows UK landlord law inside out and explains everything in simple terms. No jargon, no judgment.

  • "Do I need to protect the deposit if it's my mum renting?"
  • "What happens if my gas safety expires?"
  • "Can I enter the property without notice?"
  • "What's the difference between Section 8 and Section 21?"

I'm about to let my first property. What do I absolutely need to have in place before the tenant moves in?

Before your tenant moves in, you'll need: (1) a valid Gas Safety Certificate, (2) an EPC rating of E or above, (3) working smoke alarms on each floor, (4) a carbon monoxide alarm in rooms with solid fuel, and (5) to protect the deposit within 30 days and provide prescribed information. Shall I explain any of these in more detail?

Each requirement comes with clear instructions. We tell you what to do, when to do it, and how to do it properly.
