Why it is a pack and not a checklist
These documents are usually sent in one email, but they are separate legal duties. A record saying "pack sent" cannot prove the EPC specifically was included, and it is always one specific document that gets questioned.
So the pack sends as one action and records as several: one row per attachment, each with its own document type and time.
What is in it
- Gas Safety record, where there is a gas appliance
- EICR
- EPC
- Deposit prescribed information, where you took a deposit
- The written statement of terms
Why it matters later
Missing one of these is a common reason a possession claim runs into trouble months or years afterwards. The cost of getting it right is one send; the cost of getting it wrong is discovered at the worst possible moment.
The How to Rent guide
Do not add it from memory. That guide was withdrawn, and checklists that still list it are out of date. Ours does not.
