Property Compliance Hub

Practical, source-led guidance for landlords, agents, property managers and facilities teams responsible for UK property compliance.

Compliance guidance built around real duties

The Compliance Hub explains how property-safety and regulatory workstreams fit together without reducing them to misleading certificate lists. Each guide is written around current official guidance and clearly separates legal duties, technical assessment, evidence management and practical coordination.

Because duties can depend on property type, use, occupation, local authority and who controls the premises, these guides should be used as structured starting points rather than one-size-fits-all legal advice.

Landlord Compliance Checklist

Use a property-led framework to review electrical, gas, fire, energy, HMO, water-hygiene and asbestos workstreams.

EICR Landlord Guide

Understand inspection cycles, report codes, remedial actions and evidence handling for rented-property electrical safety.

Electrical Safety Management Guide

Bring EICRs, remedial deadlines, electrical equipment, PAT and portfolio evidence into one practical management workflow.

Gas Safety Landlord Guide

Review annual checks, gas safety records, tenant copies, maintenance, access and the two-month renewal-window flexibility.

HMO Compliance & Licensing Guide

Check HMO status, mandatory and additional licensing, room-size rules, management duties, safety evidence and local-authority requirements.

Fire Risk Assessment Guide

Understand responsible-person duties, the assessment process and how findings should lead to maintained fire precautions.

Fire Doors & Emergency Lighting Guide

Connect fire-door checks, escape-route lighting, maintenance evidence and the fire risk assessment into one management workflow.

Legionella Landlord Guide

Assess and control water-system risk proportionately without assuming an annual certificate or routine sampling requirement.

Asbestos Duty to Manage Guide

Clarify where the duty applies and how surveys, the asbestos register, management plan and contractor information work together.

EPC & MEES Guide

Separate the EPC from the letting standard and review the current domestic and non-domestic MEES position.

How we use sources

For compliance-sensitive subjects, Primelinks prioritises official and primary guidance such as GOV.UK, HSE and legislation.gov.uk. We do not treat competitor marketing claims as legal authority, and we avoid presenting future proposals as though they are already in force.

From guidance to action

When you know which workstream applies, visit our property compliance services, use Request a Compliance Review, or review the portfolio compliance route for multiple properties.

Explore articles and service routes

Browse the property compliance blog for practical questions about inspections, report findings and next steps.

If you already know the work required, explore the service directory. For several properties, discuss portfolio coordination. If the requirement is unclear, request a compliance review with the property details and documents held.
