Your agent isn't a compliance specialist. They're a property finder who also charges you monthly.

Section 21 abolition · 1 May 2026

The main thing agents justified their fee on no longer exists.

Section 21 (no-fault eviction) is abolished from 1 May 2026. All evictions now require Section 8 grounds. The compliance prerequisite check — deposit protected, gas cert current, EICR valid — is now the critical service. LandlordAssist does it automatically, every day.

§

What agents used to handle

  • Section 21 no-fault eviction process
  • Serving prescribed form notices
  • Coordinating with solicitors
  • Managing the 2-month notice window

Section 21 is abolished from 1 May 2026.

What actually matters now

  • Deposit protected before any eviction
  • Gas cert, EICR, EPC all current
  • How to rent guide served
  • Section 8 grounds correctly evidenced

Compliance prerequisites determine whether your S8 notice is valid.

What LandlordAssist does

  • Tracks all compliance prerequisites daily
  • Flags any gap before you issue a notice
  • Drafts S8 notices with preflight check
  • Alerts you the moment anything expires

Preflight check blocks you if a certificate is expired — saving a £5K invalid notice.

Getting started

Switch in a weekend.

Three steps. No technical setup. We onboard you personally during beta — you won't be alone.

01

Export your property list from your agent

Ask your agent for a handover pack — tenancy agreements, certificate copies, deposit references, and tenant contact details. Most agents provide this as part of their contract end process.

02

Upload to LandlordAssist — agent reads your documents

Drop your documents into your LandlordAssist vault. The AI reads the PDFs, extracts expiry dates, deposit scheme references, and tenant names — and builds your compliance dashboard.

03

Notify your agent — self-managing from next month

Give your notice period as required by your contract. Your agent's compliance function is replaced from day one. The percentage stops immediately.

We onboard you personally during beta.

Every beta customer gets a 1:1 setup session. We help you import your documents, configure your alerts, and go live — before you pay a penny.

Your agent charges for compliance. Yours is already broken.
