FeaturesViewings and applications
From “is it still available?” to a tenancy on file
Applicants fill in one form from a link, you approve or decline with an email sent for you, and viewings are confirmed from a link. An approved applicant becomes a tenancy without typing their details in again.
- Applicants need no account
- Viewing reminders on the day
- On the trial and paid plans

The short answer
What is tenant application software?
Tenant application software collects applications for a property in one format, keeps track of who is approved, who is viewing and who is waiting, and turns the chosen applicant into a tenancy. It replaces emails, a notes app and a form retyped into a tenancy agreement.
In LetCompliance each property has an application link. Applicants need no account, and the form collects the details referencing will need, including date of birth, address history, current landlord and notice period, along with a record that they saw your privacy notice. You and the applicant are both emailed when an application arrives.
Approving an application emails the applicant an invitation to view, and declining sends a polite update. The applicant confirms or declines a viewing from a link, giving times they are free, and both of you get a reminder on the morning of the viewing.
People you cannot help yet can join a waiting list from a public link, and you can contact them by email or WhatsApp in one click. When you choose an applicant, you create the tenancy from the application, entering the start date, rent and deposit, and the conversion is recorded.
What it does
Three things that stop applicants getting lost.
One application form
Every applicant answers the same questions from a link, with no account to create, so applications can be compared fairly and referencing has what it needs.
Viewings confirmed by link
Approving an applicant sends a viewing invitation. They confirm or decline from a link with the times they are free, and both sides are reminded on the morning of the viewing.
A waiting list that is yours
A public “register your interest” link builds a list of people you can contact by email or WhatsApp when the next property comes up.

Built by a landlord, for landlords.
I let property myself, so I know what it costs to juggle an agent, a spreadsheet and a handful of reminder apps just to stay on the right side of the law. LetCompliance puts all of it behind one login: advertise the property, take applications, collect the rent, and keep every certificate and notice in order, each taken straight from GOV.UK.
