How to Self-Manage and Master Renters’ Rights Compliance

How to Self-Manage and Master Renters’ Rights Compliance

The landscape of private renting in the UK is changing fast, with the Renters’ Rights Act on the horizon.

If you’re a self-managing landlord, you’ve probably felt a mix of anxiety and frustration as new compliance rules loom.

The easy option is to hand everything to a High Street letting agent. But for many landlords, that means losing control, paying steep fees, and feeling disconnected from their own properties.

At LettingsPA, we think there’s a better way.


The Landlord’s Dilemma: Control vs Compliance

For years, self-management has offered independence and cost savings. But the next wave of legislation could turn that independence into a legal risk.

Traditional agents are quick to step in, yet their services often come with two major drawbacks:

  • High Fees – Losing 12–15% of your income to a faceless firm that treats your property like another number on a spreadsheet.
  • Loss of Control – No say in contractors, repair costs, or tenant relationships.

We understand that frustration - because we’re landlords too. That’s why we’ve built a service designed for people like us.


Introducing LettingsPA: Your Compliance Co-Pilot

You shouldn’t have to choose between control and compliance.

LettingsPA gives self-managing landlords the reassurance of professional compliance oversight, without handing over the day-to-day running of their properties.

“Most landlords want to do things right, they just need the right systems and support. LettingsPA gives them the confidence to stay compliant and in control.”
