Managing Compliance

Getting Started

1. Upload EICR certificates — Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICR) are required every 5 years for rental properties. Upload the certificate and RentFig will remind you before expiry.
2. Track gas safety certificates — If your property has gas, upload annual gas safety certificates. RentFig flags properties without current certificates.
3. Maintain EPC ratings — Every property needs a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). Upload it to your compliance file.
4. Use the built-in categories — Gas Safety, EICR, EPC, Smoke Alarm and Carbon Monoxide Alarm are checked by default; HMO, Additional and Selective Licensing, Fire Risk Assessment, Legionella Risk Assessment, PAT Testing and more can be switched on per property, and you can add your own custom categories for anything else your portfolio needs.
5. Set renewal reminders — On the Starter plan and above, a daily sweep checks every certificate and emails you before it expires — 14 days ahead by default. Change the notice period, or turn reminders off, under Settings → Reminders. Expiring items also show on the dashboard's For Your Attention panel.
6. Renew in one click — Use Renew on the Compliance To do list or the property's checklist: it opens Add certificate already filled in and moves the old certificate to the history.
7. View compliance status — Compliance opens on the To do list (everything overdue, due in 30 days or missing, grouped by property); the tabs along the top show every property's score, all certificates and the EPC 2030 view.
