ComplianceOur expertise in property compliance
Compliance is no one’s favourite task. It is time consuming, tedious and repetitive, and it grows with every property you add. Our experts are up to date with current legislation, and we run compliance as part of the operation: bringing a property up to speed, then keeping on top of every regular job through our platform, so your property and tenants are protected 365 days a year.

Common questions
What compliance checks do short-let properties need in London?
This depends on the property and how it is used, for example gas safety, electrical checks and licensing where they apply. We will confirm the list when we scope your service.
Can you work with our existing certificates?
Yes. We can bring existing records into the calendar so nothing is duplicated.
Who is responsible if something lapses?
We agree responsibilities with you up front, so ownership is clear.
