Landlord compliance software
that acts, not just reminds

Letted is an AI property management platform for UK landlords. It tracks every compliance obligation per property — and starts renewals before deadlines arrive, with a timestamped record you own.

What the law expects of you in England

Eight obligations, each with its own clock. Miss one and the cost ranges from a fine to losing possession rights entirely.

Gas safety (CP12)

An annual check by a Gas Safe engineer, with the record given to tenants within 28 days. Letted tracks the anniversary per property and starts the renewal before it's due.

Electrical safety (EICR)

An electrical inspection at least every five years, with the report to tenants within 28 days. Five years is exactly long enough to forget — Letted doesn't.

EPC & the 2030 deadline

Minimum rating E today — and the government has confirmed a minimum of C for tenancies from 1 October 2030. Letted tracks your rating and flags properties that need work early.

Smoke & CO alarms

A smoke alarm on every storey and a carbon monoxide alarm in any room with a fixed combustion appliance — repaired or replaced as soon as a fault is reported.

Deposit protection

Deposits protected in an authorised scheme, with prescribed information served within 30 days — miss it and the penalty is one to three times the deposit. Capped at five weeks' rent.

Right to Rent

Immigration status checks for all adult occupiers before the tenancy starts, with records kept. Civil penalties for getting it wrong run to five figures.

Licensing (HMO & local)

A mandatory licence for HMOs with five or more people from two or more households — plus additional and selective schemes that vary council by council. Letted knows which apply to each property.

Renters' Rights Act 2025

Section 21 abolished and tenancies converted to periodic from 1 May 2026, rent rises only via Section 13. The PRS database, Ombudsman and Awaab's Law extension are still to commence — Letted tracks each change as it lands.

How Letted carries it

Reminders tell you what's about to be overdue. Letted makes sure nothing gets there.

  1. Letted audits what you have

    Add a property and Letted collects the existing certificates, verifies them, and shows a compliance score with exactly what's covered and what's at risk.

  2. Every deadline is watched

    Gas, electrical, EPC, deposits, alarms, licensing — each obligation is tracked per property, not in a spreadsheet you have to remember to open.

  3. Renewals start themselves

    Before a certificate expires, Letted starts the renewal — booking the engineer and chasing the paperwork — so deadlines arrive already handled.

  4. The record is tribunal-ready

    Every action is timestamped against the property. If a council officer or tribunal asks what you did and when, the answer is ready.

Common questions

At minimum: an annual gas safety record (CP12) if there are gas appliances, an electrical safety report (EICR) at least every five years, an EPC rated E or above (a minimum of C applies to tenancies from 1 October 2030), working smoke alarms on every storey and CO alarms where there's a fixed combustion appliance, deposit protection with prescribed information served within 30 days, Right to Rent checks, and a licence where HMO or local schemes apply. Scotland and Wales have additional requirements.

The Act received Royal Assent on 27 October 2025, with the main provisions commencing 1 May 2026: Section 21 'no-fault' evictions are abolished, existing assured shorthold tenancies converted to periodic tenancies, and rent increases now go through Section 13 (once a year, two months' notice, challengeable at tribunal). Still to come into force as of August 2026: the private rented sector database, the PRS Ombudsman, and the extension of the Decent Homes Standard and Awaab's Law to private rentals.

They stack up quickly: unprotected deposits carry a penalty of one to three times the deposit; licensing failures can mean civil penalties up to £30,000 and rent repayment orders; gas safety failures are criminal offences; and missing paperwork can block possession claims entirely. A non-compliant property can also give a tenant grounds to withhold rent — which is why compliance is the first thing Letted checks.

Legal responsibility sits with the landlord either way — an agent doesn't absorb it. What matters is whether the obligations are actually tracked and actioned. Conventional compliance tools send reminders; Letted goes further by starting renewals itself and keeping a timestamped audit trail.
