Compliance Score
A 0-100 score LetCompliance assigns to each property based on how up-to-date its safety certificates and tenancy documents are. 100 means Gas Safety, EICR, EPC, deposit protection and Right to Rent are all current; the score drops as deadlines approach and is recalculated daily.

Open full guideWhy Compliance Score matters for landlords
Most landlords think they are compliant until a deadline quietly slips. The Compliance Score replaces a folder full of PDFs with a single daily number per property so a portfolio owner can see which assets are at risk before a tenant or council does. It is a LetCompliance product metric, not a legal rating — but because every input behind it is a genuine statutory obligation, a score under 100 is always a real compliance gap.

CP12 (Gas Safety Record)
The document issued after an annual gas safety check by a Gas Safe registered engineer, commonly called a Gas Safety Certificate. Landlords must renew it every 12 months, give the tenant a copy within 28 days of the check, and give new tenants a copy before they move in. Non-compliance is a criminal offence under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998.
Full Management
A letting agent service that covers marketing, referencing, tenancy setup, rent collection, repairs and compliance. Fees typically run 10-15% of rent plus VAT. The landlord remains legally responsible for compliance even when a full management agent acts on their behalf.
Landlord Database (Private Rented Sector Database)
A national digital register of private landlords and rented properties in England, established under the Renters Rights Act 2025. Every landlord must register and provide property details and proof of compliance (gas, electrical, deposit protection, EPC) before letting. Operated by central government, accessible to local councils and tenants. Failure to register is an offence with civil penalty up to £7,000 per breach, and a court can refuse a possession order under Section 8 if the property or landlord is not registered.
Let-Only
A letting agent service limited to finding a tenant, referencing and drawing up the tenancy agreement. The landlord handles rent collection, repairs and compliance. Typical fee: one month's rent plus VAT.
Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016
The standalone Welsh statute (commenced 1 December 2022) that replaced the assured / assured shorthold / common-law regime in Wales with two new contract types: Standard Contract (private rented sector default) and Secure Contract (mainly social housing). Different from England’s framework: notice is six months under a no-fault Section 173 (Wales’ equivalent of Section 21), Written Statement of Contract is mandatory within 14 days, and the Renters Rights Act 2025 does NOT apply in Wales. LetCompliance is England-only; Welsh landlords need a Wales-specific compliance product.
