At Zorba Property Solutions, we’ll keep you informed of the specific licensing requirements for your rental properties and offer full support with applications and handling the process from start to finish.

Landlords in the UK must verify that all adult tenants have the legal right to rent. This applies to all prospective tenants aged 18 and over. Our systems allow us to carry out checks efficiently, but either you or a representative must meet tenants in person before handing over the keys.

Properties must be professionally cleaned before tenants move in—this is a requirement in our tenancy agreements.

A domestic clean won’t suffice. A professional clean includes deep cleaning of bathrooms and kitchens, plus treatment of all flooring and appliances. To meet your tenancy obligations, we recommend booking this service through us.

PAT testing ensures all portable electrical appliances in your property are safe for use.

Appliances such as kettles, microwaves, fridges and washing machines are inspected and certified. Any items that fail must be repaired or removed. A PAT certificate serves as proof that you’ve taken appropriate safety measures.

Landlords must assess the risk of Legionnaires’ disease in their rental properties. A basic risk assessment is usually sufficient, particularly for domestic systems with regular water use. However, properties with hot tubs or other water features may require extra attention. We can advise on best practices and arrange inspections as needed.

A valid Gas Safety Certificate (GSC) is a legal requirement to confirm that gas appliances and supply points in a property are safe.

A registered engineer must carry out this check annually, inspecting all relevant systems and the flue. We can help arrange these inspections whether we manage your property or not. Remember: landlords must provide tenants with a copy of the new certificate within 28 days.

The Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) assesses the safety of a property’s electrical systems—covering fuse boards, sockets, switches, lighting and more.

A valid EICR with a ‘satisfactory’ rating is mandatory for all rental properties and must be renewed every five years. If an inspection results in an ‘unsatisfactory’ rating, remedial work must be completed within 28 days (or sooner, if required).

Detailed check-in and check-out reports protect your property and help avoid disputes.

These reports document the exact condition of your property at the start and end of the tenancy, with photos and written descriptions. Without them, it can be difficult to make deductions from the deposit for damage. We recommend scheduling a check-in report after professional cleaning and a check-out at the tenancy’s end.

AML checks are legally required to confirm the identity and legitimacy of all parties involved in property transactions.

Every time you let or sell a property, you must provide valid photo ID and a recent utility bill. We also carry out these checks on prospective tenants to ensure full compliance with HMRC regulations.

An EPC rates the energy efficiency of your property and is legally required before marketing a rental.

Your property must meet a minimum rating of E unless exempt. If applicable, exemptions must be recorded in the Government’s PRS exemption registry. Jaez Management can help you obtain or renew your EPC quickly and efficiently.
