We build custom letting agent platforms used across the UK — including LettingGuru. Tenancy management, deposit protection, RtR checks, GoCardless rent collection, and the workflow that lets your team handle 5x more properties without 5x more staff.
Six features that distinguish a custom build from another off-the-shelf platform you have to wedge your processes into.
Application, referencing, tenancy creation, renewal reminders, and end-of-tenancy. Full audit trail and document storage with proper retention.
Onfido or Yoti for digital RtR. Integrations with HomeLet, Vouch, Goodlord, and Canopy for referencing. Automated decisions with manual review for edge cases.
TDS, MyDeposits, and DPS API integrations. Auto-registration on tenancy start, transfer at end-of-tenancy, dispute pack generation if needed.
UK Direct Debit via GoCardless — auto-collection, retry on failure, and transparent tenant ledgers. Holds-and-releases for landlord payouts. Stripe for cards where DD is not possible.
Tenant-submitted maintenance with photos, contractor allocation, status tracking, and approval workflow for landlord-funded works. Integrated calendar and SMS reminders.
EPC, gas safety, EICR, smoke alarm, and CO alarm tracking with expiry reminders. Per-property and per-portfolio views. The audit trail your local council might ask for.
Three patterns from the agencies we have built for — and the ones we have heard war stories from.
Right-to-rent, deposit protection deadlines, gas safety, EPC — missing any one of these is expensive. We build automated tracking with proactive reminders so nothing slips, and an audit trail if the council ever asks.
Rent collection via Direct Debit (GoCardless) is the UK standard. Tenant-side: clear ledger, payment dates, and automatic late-fee logic. Landlord-side: visible holds, reliable monthly payouts. We build both sides cleanly.
Tenants submit maintenance with photos, contractors get allocated automatically based on rules (geography, specialism, rate), and landlords approve costs above thresholds. The whole flow lives in the app, not in 200 chained emails.
Tell us how many properties you manage and where the friction is. We’ll come back within 24 hours with a clear scope, fixed price, and a plan to retire the spreadsheets.
