LetCompliance vs Yardi Breeze

For a UK landlord, largely yes: LetCompliance runs the whole let — lettings, rent and arrears, compliance, Section 8 / 13 notices and SA105 tax — and adds the UK-specific compliance and landlord tax Yardi Breeze does not. Yardi wins if you need deep double-entry accounting and Open Banking bank feeds in the same tool; you can keep it for accounting and run the landlord operation, compliance and notices in LetCompliance.

Yardi Breeze provides document storage you can use for Section 8 evidence, but it does not ship a ground-by-ground Section 8 drafter, Section 13 rent-increase notice, Awaab’s Law SLA→ engine or RRA 2025 toolkit. Those are LetCompliance core surface area.

For a 2–10 property UK landlord, LetCompliance’s flat per-portfolio fee is typically cheaper than a per-unit per-month model, and you also get the Section 8 / RRA / tax toolkit. For a 50+ unit mixed-country portfolio that needs full accounting and rent collection in one tool, Yardi Breeze’s per-unit pricing is often justified.

Yardi Breeze’s reporting is built on configurable owner statements and a general ledger, not a packaged HMRC MTD ITSA quarterly summary on the standard cadence (periods ending 5 Jul / 5 Oct / 5 Jan / 5 Apr, submissions due 7 Aug / 7 Nov / 7 Feb / 7 May). LetCompliance ships the quarterly summary on those HMRC dates, Section 24 calculator and SA105-shaped Tax Pack you can paste into a recognised MTD filer or hand to your accountant.

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.

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; Yardi Breeze 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.

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.

They are written by the LetCompliance team, and we say so plainly — but each one names where Yardi Breeze 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.
