Property Licence

This applies only to certain councils whereby all Landlords and Property managing agents letting a property need to apply for a licence. For some authorities this may be by Property and for others it is by Landlord (see Landlord Registration).

Property Licences can be accessed from a Property record by clicking the Certificate icon on the ribbon menu.

A Home Page reminder shows Property Licences that are required/need renewing. Settings in the Property LicencesCertificate allows you to specify the reminder period in days.
