    Lettings PA

    The Self-Managing Landlord Option

    Compliance Lettings Support for Self-Managing Landlords

    Lettings PA provides compliance lettings support with rent collection and rent protection & legal cover for self-managing landlords who want to stay legally compliant, protect their income and reduce risk, without full property management.

    We collect the rent.
    We also include Rent Protection & Legal Expenses cover, because landlords shouldn’t be exposed if something goes wrong.

    This is not full management.
    It’s focused, professional support for landlords who stay in control.

    Who Lettings PA Is for

    Who Lettings PA Is for

    Lettings PA is designed for landlords who:

    • Self-manage their rental property
    • Want rent collected professionally
    • Want confidence they are fully compliant
    • Understand rent protection is no longer optional
    • Don’t want repairs, maintenance, or tenants fully handed to an agent
    • Want clarity, protection and fewer surprises

    If you want to remain hands-on, but better protected, this service is built for you.

    Rent Protection & Legal Expenses Cover:

    Included as part of the Lettings PA service:

    • Protection against rent arrears (subject to policy terms)

    • Rent Protection & Legal Expenses cover via Goodlord (subject to policy terms and eligibility)

    There are no hidden extras, no forced upgrades and no requirement to move onto full management.

    Who Lettings PA Is Not For

    Who Lettings PA Is Not For

    Lettings PA is not designed for every landlord.

    This service may not be suitable if you are looking for:

    • Full property management
    • An agent to handle repairs and maintenance
    • Someone to manage day-to-day tenant communication
    • A hands-off “do everything for me” service
    • The cheapest rent collection option available

    Lettings PA is for landlords who want to stay involved, but with professional compliance, rent handling, and protection in place.

    If you do want full management, we can happily discuss this with you.

    Compliance & Rent Protection Information

    Compliance & Rent Protection Information

    Lettings PA provides compliance guidance and support, not legal advice.

    While we help landlords understand and track their compliance responsibilities, the legal responsibility for compliance remains with the landlord at all times.

    Rent Protection & Legal Expenses cover is provided through Goodlord and is:

    • Subject to insurer terms, conditions, exclusions, and eligibility
    • Dependent on tenant referencing, tenancy setup, and policy requirements
    • Not a guarantee of payment in all circumstances

    Full policy documentation will be provided before cover is relied upon, and landlords should ensure they understand the scope of cover.

    Rent Protection & Legal Expenses Cover

    (How it works, in plain English)

    Rent Protection You Can Rely On

    As part of the Lettings PA service, landlords benefit from Rent Protection & Legal Expenses cover provided via Goodlord, one of the UK’s leading lettings and referencing platforms.

    This cover is included because we believe landlords should not be exposed to unnecessary risk when self-managing.

    In simple terms, this means:

    • Protection against rent arrears (subject to policy terms)
    • Legal expenses cover if possession proceedings are required
    • Support if a tenancy doesn’t go to plan

    Cover is subject to:

    • Tenant referencing requirements
    • Correct tenancy setup
    • Insurer terms, conditions and exclusions

    You can view Goodlord’s full Rent Protection & Legal Expenses information sheet HERE.

    We’ll always explain how the cover works in practice and confirm eligibility before reliance on the policy.

    One Clear Service. No “Rent Collection Only”

    One Clear Service. No “Rent Collection Only”

    Why We Don’t Offer Rent Collection on Its Own

    Lettings PA is intentionally designed as a compliance-led service with protection built in.

    We don’t offer “rent collection only” because:

    • Rent handling without compliance support exposes landlords to risk
    • Protection policies rely on correct setup and ongoing compliance
    • Fragmented services often leave gaps and landlords pay for that later
    How Lettings PA Compares to Self Managing Alone

    How Lettings PA Compares to Self Managing Alone

    The hidden risk of “doing it all yourself”

    Many landlords self-manage successfully until something changes.

    Legislation shifts, documents expire, a tenant misses a payment, or a process isn’t followed exactly. That’s usually when problems appear, often after it’s too late to fix cheaply.

    Lettings PA is designed to reduce that risk without taking control away from you.

    Why Compliance Led Support Matters More Than Ever

    Why Compliance Led Support Matters More Than Ever

    The rental landscape is changing – fast

    Landlord responsibilities are increasing, not decreasing.
    Rules are more detailed, enforcement is stricter and mistakes are more costly.

    Lettings PA exists to help landlords stay ahead, not react later.

    What Compliance-Led Support Really Means

    What Compliance-Led Support Really Means

    Compliance-led support means:

    • You’re not just told what the rules are
    • You’re supported in keeping them up to date
    • You’re reminded before something expires
    • You’re protected if something goes wrong
    Built for the New Era of Letting

    Built for the New Era of Letting

    Lettings PA is intentionally structured around:

    • Rent handling consistency
    • Clear compliance oversight
    • Protection being standard, not optional
    • Landlords retaining control

    Lettings PA is designed for landlords who take self-management seriously and want the right support around them as the rules evolve.

    Landlord Compliance Confidence Checklist (England)

    Not Sure If You’re Fully Compliant?

    Already managing your property but want reassurance you’re doing things properly?
    Lettings PA exists to support self-managing landlords before problems arise, not after.

    👉 Book a Compliance Clarity Call

    Before you book a call, you may find it helpful to complete our Landlord Compliance Confidence Checklist (England).

    This checklist is designed to help self-managing landlords understand whether their rental property is compliant and where the risks may be.

    It’s not legal advice.
    It’s clarity.

    This simple checklist helps self-managing landlords understand:

    • What compliance documents are legally required
    • What often gets missed
    • What needs renewing and when
    • Where the biggest risks usually sit

    It’s designed to give you clarity, not overwhelm.

    If you’d like help interpreting your checklist results, you can book a Compliance Clarity Call at any time.

    Lettings PA exists to give self-managing landlords clarity, consistency and protection without forcing them into full management.

    Landlord Compliance Checklist

    How to Use This Checklist:

    • Tick Yes, No, or Not Sure
    • “Not Sure” usually means action needed
    • This applies to England only
    • If you already have tenants in place, this still applies

    Property Safety Compliance

    Gas Safety

    Do you have a valid Gas Safety Certificate (issued within the last 12 months)?



    Was the certificate given to the tenant before they moved in (or within 28 days of renewal)?



    Electrical Safety

    Do you have a valid EICR (Electrical Safety Report)?



    Is it less than 5 years old, or compliant with the report’s recommendations?



    Energy Performance

    Does the property have a valid EPC?



    Is the EPC rating E or above (unless exempt)?



    Smoke & Carbon Monoxide

    Are smoke alarms installed on every required level?



    Are carbon monoxide alarms installed where required?



    Were alarms tested and working at the start of the tenancy?



    What Your Answers Mean

    • Mostly Yes → You’re probably managing well, but ongoing support reduces future risk.
    • Several No / Not Sure → There may be compliance gaps worth addressing.
    • Lots of Not Sure → This is where problems usually start.

    Compliance issues rarely come from bad landlords — they come from missed details.

    Need Support Interpreting This?

    Lettings PA supports self-managing landlords with:

    • Rent collection
    • Compliance oversight
    • Reminders & guidance
    • Rent Protection & Legal Expenses cover


    👉 Book a Compliance Clarity Call

    This checklist is provided for general guidance only and does not constitute legal advice.
    Legal responsibility for compliance remains with the landlord at all times.
