With legislation constantly evolving and scrutiny intensifying, landlords and letting agents are under increasing pressure to ensure that all documentation, inspections, and certifications are not just completed, but completed correctly, on time, and traceably.

The challenge? Compliance in the property sector is still riddled with complexity and inefficiencies. Paper trails get lost. Deadlines get missed. And when a tenancy ends, landlords often find themselves trying to piece together evidence from months or years ago. It’s no surprise that end-of-tenancy disputes remain one of the biggest headaches in the rental sector.

A Smarter Way to Stay Compliant

togetha is built for one purpose: to make compliance simple, secure, and stress-free for landlords, letting agents, and property professionals.

With togetha, reminders for critical compliance dates, such as EPC renewals, gas safety checks, and electrical inspections, are automatically generated and sent out in advance. There’s no need for landlords to manually track expiry dates or risk falling out of compliance.

Our system even goes one step further: at the start of every new tenancy, togetha automatically sends out the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to tenants, ensuring this legal requirement is met without any manual intervention. It’s one less task on your to-do list and one more thing you can be sure is handled correctly.

Why Compliance Matters: The Cost of Getting It Wrong

Local authorities across the UK have the power to issue substantial civil penalties to landlords who fail to comply with key housing regulations. These fines are not just a slap on the wrist; they can be financially devastating.

Here are just a few examples of penalties landlords can face:

• Gas Safety Certificate (GSR): Failure to provide a valid gas safety record before the start of a tenancy can result in fines of up to £6,000 per breach, and in serious cases, custodial sentences may apply.

• Energy Performance Certificate (EPC): If a landlord fails to provide an EPC to a tenant at the beginning of the tenancy, they could face a fixed penalty of £200 per property, and potentially risk invalidating any future eviction proceedings (currently Section 21, however, when the Renters' Rights Bill becomes law, this will change to an enhanced Section 8).

• Electrical Safety Standards (EICR): Non-compliance with EICR rules, now mandatory for most rental properties, can lead to civil penalties of up to £30,000 per breach, issued by local councils.

• Licensing requirements: If a property requires a selective, additional, or HMO licence and the landlord fails to obtain one, councils can issue fines of up to £30,000 per offence.

• Right to Rent checks: Failure to carry out Right to Rent checks can result in fines up to £3,000 per tenant for private landlords.

Fines are typically issued per breach, per property, and can escalate quickly across portfolios, even modest ones.

The takeaway? Staying compliant isn’t just about protecting tenants, it’s about protecting your business.

The togetha Vault: Your Digital Filing Cabinet

Say goodbye to overstuffed filing cabinets, lost PDFs, and last-minute scrambles to find that one certificate you know you had somewhere.

Every document uploaded or generated through togetha is stored securely in the togetha Vault. The Vault is a secure, encrypted digital hub where all your certificates, inspection reports, tenancy agreements, and communications are safely archived. Need to produce a gas safety certificate for an audit? It’s right there. Want to prove that a tenant was given their EPC? It’s time-stamped and stored for quick retrieval.

This secure, centralised record-keeping offers more than just convenience; it provides peace of mind. If a dispute arises or an audit is triggered, your documentation is organised, accessible, and legally robust.

The Power of Proactive Automation

One of the biggest problems in property management is that compliance relies heavily on memory, from remembering to book a boiler check, or sending out required documentation before a tenancy begins.

togetha handles the remembering for you.

With our automated workflows, property professionals can be confident that no important step will be missed. Need to schedule a mid-term inspection? togetha sends a reminder. EPC due in 60 days? togetha will notify you and even help you coordinate the renewal. Each compliance task is tracked, scheduled, and confirmed.

By automating the process from end to end, we help you avoid costly oversights and save hours of admin time in the process. The average togetha customer saves 20 hours of admin time every single week. What would an extra 20 hours spent focusing on revenue-driving activities mean to your business?

Whilst we're talking about the power of proactive automation, togetha also uses automation to help reduce late rent payments - you can check out how in our blog here, and see how much more rent you can expect to collect for your business' cash flow.

Built-In Protection: The Landlord and Tenant Portal

Every communication through togetha, including sending certificates, scheduling inspections, or notifying tenants of upcoming works, is automatically logged and time-stamped in the togetha portal.

This creates a built-in audit trail, offering full visibility and traceability of every action taken throughout the tenancy lifecycle. Should a disagreement arise over notice periods, documentation delivery, or safety compliance, landlords and agents have a secure, transparent record at their fingertips.

In an industry where disputes can drag on for weeks, or even months. Having clear, chronological evidence is one of the most effective ways to protect your interests.
