Landlord Services
From speaking to landlords, we gathered essential market research on the types of services that would be useful for their buy-to-let or lettings business. We allow landlords to mix and match them in line with their specific requirements - our pricing is fixed and transparent!
This is great for landlords who own properties outside of their local region, for example, as a landlord you can select services that allow the brightLET team to help you manage your rental properties, located anywhere in the UK, ensuring your lettings journey is made simple!

Right To Rent Check
Right to rent is a new government legal requirement enforced on February 1st 2016 to be carried out for tenants or lodgers renting residential property anywhere in England and, if a landlord fails to carry out this check, they could be fined or imprisoned.
This premium service gives you peace of mind and ease, as we take on legal liability by interviewing tenants, checking physical documents and certifying their immigration status.
Our professional and qualified legal team will manage the entire process for you. It is a complete risk free service, as we take on your liability for fines and prosecution if anything goes wrong later.
£65.00
Energy Performance Certificate
It is a legal requirement to have a current and valid Energy Performance Certificate before you let out a property in the UK. The EPC will assess the energy efficiency of your property and provide recommendations on where you can make improvements. The certificate is valid for 10 years from the date of the assessment (which works out to less than £6.50 per year), and includes an energy rating for your property.
