LetCompliance vs Arthur

Arthur is a full-stack property management platform, rent, maintenance, accounts, tenant portal, used by agents and larger landlords. LetCompliance runs the whole let too, advertise, take applications, collect rent, score compliance, serve notices and prepare tax, with court-ready evidence on every action. Here's how they compare.

The bottom line

+18capabilities Arthur
doesn't have

LetCompliance runs the whole let in one login — lettings, rent & arrears, e-sign, compliance, Section 8 / 13 notices and SA105 tax.

Arthur still leads on its specialism — the honest breakdown is below.

  • You want to run the whole let — lettings, rent and arrears, compliance, Section 8 / 13 notices and SA105 tax — in one login, not just property management.
  • You are a solo landlord or small-to-mid agency, and Arthur’s 50-unit, £70/mo minimum is more than you need.
  • You want a live 0-100 compliance score, court-ready evidence and possession notices Arthur does not draft.

Choose Arthur when

  • You run a mid-to-large agency and want a supplier-quote maintenance marketplace and a full owner portal.

  • Enterprise SLA, SSO and custom onboarding are important to you.

FAQs

Can I use LetCompliance alongside Arthur?

You usually do not need to — LetCompliance runs the whole let on its own (lettings, rent, compliance, notices and tax). Some larger agencies keep Arthur for its supplier-quote maintenance marketplace and owner portal, and add LetCompliance for the 0-100 compliance score, Section 8 / 13 notices and SA105 tax prep Arthur does not do.

Does Arthur have a compliance score?

Arthur tracks certificates but does not publish a single 0-100 score per property. LetCompliance's score is its defining feature.

Is LetCompliance really an all-in-one platform, or mainly a compliance tool?

It runs the whole let, not just compliance. In one login you advertise, take applications and viewings, reference tenants, e-sign the tenancy, collect rent by Direct Debit and chase arrears, track a 0-100 compliance score, draft Section 8 and Section 13 notices, manage HMO rooms, book done-for-you property services and prepare your SA105 tax. The compliance score is one feature among many, not the whole product.

Which should a UK landlord choose — LetCompliance or Arthur?

The table above compares them feature by feature. For most UK landlords and small-to-mid agencies who want the whole tenancy in one place, LetCompliance covers more of the let; Arthur is the better pick for the specific areas it leads on, which are called out honestly above. LetCompliance is free for your first property, then from £14.99/mo.

Does LetCompliance handle Making Tax Digital and SA105 tax as well as Arthur?

LetCompliance ships an SA105-shaped Tax Pack, a Section 24 personal-vs-limited-company calculator, MTD-dated quarterly summaries, a capital-gains calculator and a mileage log — the landlord tax layer most tools skip. It is not HMRC-recognised for the direct press-submit step, so above the £50,000 MTD threshold you pair it with a recognised filer or hand the pack to your accountant.

Are these Arthur comparisons independent and kept up to date?

They are written by the LetCompliance team, and we say so plainly — but each one names where Arthur is the better choice and the two things LetCompliance does not do (Open Banking bank-feed reconciliation and HMRC direct-submit filing). Pricing and feature rows are re-verified every quarter.
