Find a tenant

• A public page for each listing, with photos, to share on property sites and social media
• Your listings appear in Keymews property search, where people looking for a home find them
• Advertise a home to rent or for sale
• Letting and estate agents can import their listings, with photos, from the BLM file their agency software makes for property portals. Each new file updates them, and listings missing material information such as the council tax band are kept as drafts
• See the area’s average rent or price for a home like yours as you set it, from official ONS and HM Land Registry statistics. The listing page shows people how it compares
• Advertise commercial property to let or for sale, with the rent a year, floor area, use class, VAT and rateable value. People ask questions and book viewings; you agree the let with them directly
• Enquiries in one inbox, and viewing times people book themselves, with a calendar file
• An application form at the advertised rent: no offers above it, as the Renters’ Rights Act requires
• Deposits capped at five weeks’ rent, and wording such as “No DSS” flagged before you publish
• Applications compared with fair criteria (affordability or a guarantor, move-in date, how many people), then Start referencing
• Turn the application you choose into a draft tenancy, with the tenant and unit filled in
• A template writes a first description, and AI can improve it using only the facts you give
