Who this is for
People who think in properties, not articles
If you manage several addresses, the job is “what is due on which property?” Landlord and agency accounts are both live. Agencies can add an optional landlord name on each property. Team logins are not included yet.
What you get
- Per-certificate dates with optional property labels
- Upload once — reminders follow the expiry you confirm
- CSV import if you already keep a list
- Dashboard status: valid, due soon, expired
Who uses this
- A self-managing landlord with a handful of addresses
- A property manager using their own login for the homes they own or let
- Someone leaving a shared calendar that mixed personal events with legal dates
What belongs on a property compliance list
Start with certificates that have printed dates: Gas Safety records, electrical installation reports, and EPCs. Add licence renewals if the property is an HMO or otherwise licensed.
Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are often a duty without a “certificate” in the same sense — still confirm the official rules for the nation, then use the tracker for the dated documents you do hold.
How Certs Reminder is used as a tracker
Each upload becomes a row with a file and an expiry. Reminders fire whether or not you log in that week. That is the difference from a spreadsheet that only works when someone opens it.
Shared calendar vs property tracker
| Need | Shared calendar | Certs Reminder |
|---|---|---|
| Certificate PDF on the same record | Rarely | Yes |
| Several properties, several clocks | Cluttered | One certificate list |
| Works if nobody opens a sheet | No | Email reminders |

Frequently asked questions
Is this a property-management platform?
No. It tracks certificate files and expiry dates. It does not run tenancies, maintenance tickets or accounting.
Can a property manager use the live product today?
Yes, with a standard account for the certificates they are responsible for. Shared agency team logins and client reporting are not the live product — see letting agent compliance software.
How do I tell properties apart?
Use optional labels on each certificate so similar addresses stay distinguishable.
