Is Landlord Compliance Complicated?

Landlord compliance is complicated. There are numerous regulations around renting a home, some of which attract big fines for breaches.

Anyone with a home to rent has had to contend with the MEES Regulations and changes to energy efficiency standards, whilst new rules on electrical safety inspections are alsom in place.

It is also down to the landlord to enforce a whole series of other regulations such as right to rent, smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors and gas safety checks. We have, therefore, made it easy to keep track of all the latest rules and regulations with our loud-based lettings platform, PlanetRent.

PlanetRent allows all important documents and files to be accessed virtually. All new tenants using the app are provided with legally required documents such as a copy of the Government’s How to Rent checklist and Deposit Protection Scheme details, as well as energy performance and gas safety certificates.

Giving Landlords Peace of Mind

The PlanetRent app gives landlords peace of mind that every legal box is ticked and helps them avoid compliance-related fines that could be as high as £20,000.

Our real-time compliance dashboard tells them exactly what needs doing when:

Property Compliance: EPCs, Gas safety, HMO Registrations, PAT testing, Passport expiry dates, Deposit certificates and Inventories.

Tenancy compliance: Right to rent cheques and deposit certificates.

Equipment log: White goods asset register, meter MPAN/MRPN/SPID Numbers , meter locations & serial numbers and boiler maintenance contracts.

PlanetRent automates compliance reports so that they land on landlord's desks weekly or monthly and/or go direct to their compliance manager or accountant as required

. And best of all, our lettings software means that when the law changes, so do your processes.

It is all simple and it is automated. Other competing rental platforms don’t include reports or compliance visibility for landlords. The pricing model means you can pay-as-you-go, and there are no sign-up fees or subscriptions. So why not check out PlanetRent today and find out for yourself how it can save you time, money and hassle? It will give you the comfort of knowing that your properties are fully compliant with all the legal requirements. www.planetrent.co.uk.
