Landlord Compliance Checklist
About this document
A working compliance checklist for each rental property in England. It covers safety certificates, alarms, energy performance, licensing, the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 requirements in force since 1 May 2026, and the measures being phased in – the Private Rented Sector Database, the landlord ombudsman, the Decent Homes Standard and Awaab’s Law for private landlords.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
