Best UK landlord software, ranked by the job you need doing

There is no single winner. The best tool depends on your portfolio and how you let. A solo landlord, an HMO operator and a letting agent each need something different. The round-ups rank by use case: whole-let management, compliance, HMO, letting agents, tax and free tools. LetCompliance is landlord software built to run a whole let end to end (advertise, reference, e-sign, rent, arrears, a 0–100 compliance score, Section 8/13 notices and SA105/MTD tax). LetCompliance ranks itself first on each list, and every page says plainly where another tool is stronger on its specialism.

Match it to the job you actually do. Check whether it covers the whole tenancy lifecycle or just one slice; whether it tracks England-specific compliance (Gas Safety, EICR, EPC/MEES, deposit deadlines) and the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 possession rules; whether it handles tax (SA105, Section 24, Making Tax Digital); how it prices (per property or per tenancy); and whether you can export all your data if you leave.

Yes. Several tools have free tiers. LetCompliance’s paid plans start at £7.99 a month, and one property can stay on its free plan with no card. Free tiers usually cap the number of properties or lock premium features such as tax packs, notices and rent collection. The best free landlord software round-up compares them honestly.

Every round-up carries the date it was last reviewed at the top of the page, and that date is the honest answer for that list. When a round-up is reviewed, its pricing and feature rows are re-checked against the providers’ own websites. Figures are accurate at the time of writing, so always confirm current pricing with the provider before you decide.

Yes. LetCompliance is the editor’s own product, landlord software that runs the whole let, so it leads each list. Every entry below it says what that tool does better, for example Open Banking bookkeeping, HMO room boards or referencing at agency scale, and links to it.
