Whether it's the home you live in or a flat you let out, every property needs the same things kept on track: servicing, safety certificates, repairs and the paperwork that proves they were done. Home+ keeps all of it in one place and reminds you before anything is due.
A maintenance plan for the home you live in, with reminders, a document vault and a record of every job. See the home maintenance app.
Gas safety, electrical and EPC dates for a property you let, with the certificates stored next to each one. See Home+ for landlords.
If you let more than one property, see Home+ for landlords for how Home+ works for you.

Home+ isn't a full property management system. It doesn't collect rent, screen tenants or run a tenant portal. If you manage dozens of units with a team, a dedicated property management system will suit you better. Home+ is for keeping a home, or a let property, maintained and compliant without a spreadsheet.
England's new landlord register opens region by region from 15 December 2026, subject to Parliament approving the regulations. Keeping your certificates in one place now makes registering easier. See when the landlord register opens and what you'll need.
Set up your property in a few minutes and get reminders before every check is due.
