Since 1 May, the rules changed. Have you already got a tenancy wrong?

A rent increase on the wrong form can be ruled invalid. A missed Information Sheet risks a council fine of up to £7,000. If either is in your file, it is there now. A TenancyAudit tells you where, per tenancy, in 72 hours.

Compliance specialists, not solicitors. England only. Court and tribunal work isn't ours to do, and we'll tell you plainly when you've reached that line.

The problem

Since 1 May 2026, Section 21 is gone for private tenancies. Every existing private assured tenancy became periodic. The way you raise rent and end a tenancy changed too. Already served something under the new rules? The question is whether it was right. A rent increase on the wrong form or with the wrong notice period can be challenged at the tribunal, which can rule the notice invalid. An Information Sheet sent as a link instead of the official PDF does not count, and getting it wrong risks a council fine of up to £7,000.

The tracking apps remind you a date is coming. They do not tell you whether what you already did holds up. That is what an audit is for.

Raising the rent? There's a pack for that.

What you get

A per-tenancy exposure report. For each tenancy we rate every obligation Compliant, At risk, or Missing, and give you a prioritised list of what to fix first. The report is signed by a named compliance specialist, so you are not left to make sense of an automated flag.

We check, per tenancy:

  • Whether your Information Sheet was served correctly, to whom, and in what form
  • Whether rent increases used the correct Section 13 process and Form 4A
  • Whether any rent-review clause you are relying on still has any effect
  • Your deposit protection and prescribed-information trail
  • Gas, electrical and EPC certificate service
  • Any notice served on a ground that no longer applies

Where something needs putting right, the report says so and tells you what the correction is. Remediation is quoted separately and is not part of the £99.

How it works

1. Order

Give us the property address at checkout. We then check what the public records say about it. That covers the EPC and when it runs out, HMO and council licences, ICO registration, and all three deposit schemes.

2. Answer the short questions

We email them within the hour. What was served, when, and how: the registers can't see inside your filing cabinet, and this is the part that decides your exposure.

3. Signed report in 72 hours

Counted from the moment your answers come back. If we miss it, the £99 is refunded.

The registers and your answers do the heavy lifting; a person decides whether your paperwork holds. Every report is read and signed before it leaves, so the conclusion has a name on it, not an automated flag.

Where we stop

We're compliance specialists, not solicitors, and we don't pretend otherwise. What we do is check your tenancy paperwork against the current rules and tell you where it doesn't hold up. What we don't do is act for you in a dispute. If a matter is heading for a possession claim or a tribunal hearing, that's a solicitor's job. We'll say so and hand you on.

That boundary isn't modesty. It's the reason the report is worth having.

Questions

Are you a solicitor?

No, and nobody here is. We do unreserved compliance work: audits, correctness review and paperwork checking. None of that requires a solicitor. Anything that does, including court and tribunal steps, goes to a solicitor rather than to us.

Is this legal advice?

No. It's a compliance audit: we check what you've actually done against the current rules and tell you where the gaps are. If you want advice on a specific dispute, you want a solicitor, and we'll point you at one.

What if you find nothing wrong?

Then you have a signed report saying so, which is worth having on file if a tenant ever challenges you.

How fast?

Signed report within 72 hours of receiving your completed questionnaire, or the fee is refunded.
