Three steps, then it runs itself

Most landlords are set up in under five minutes, and never need to come back until an email asks them to.

  1. Add a property

    Name, address, a photo if you like. Every property gets its own card, with the next thing that needs doing on it.

  2. Tick what applies

    No gas supply? Leave gas safety off. Nothing to PAT test? Leave that off too. Only the requirements that apply, per property.

  3. Enter the last date

    The next due date is worked out for you. Drop in the certificate, and an email arrives with time to spare, with the dates in your calendar if you want them.

Free tool · No account needed

Not sure when your next certificate is due? Count down in thirty seconds.

  • Rules for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland
  • Shows the early-booking window that keeps your renewal date
  • Add the dates to your calendar, or save them for email reminders

Questions landlords ask first

Landlords Diary is deliberately narrow. It does compliance well and leaves rent and tenants to other tools.

Is this a full property management system?
No, and that is deliberate. It tracks legal requirements, inspections and certificates. It does not do rent collection, accounting or tenant management.
Is it worth it with one property?
That is who it was built for. One property is free forever, with the same reminders and uploads as the paid plans.
How long does setup take?
Most landlords are done in under five minutes. Add a property, tick the requirements that apply, enter the last dates.
Can I upgrade later if my portfolio grows?
Yes. Upgrade from inside your dashboard at any time and keep everything you have entered.
Is my data secure?
Your data is stored securely and only you can see it. Billing is handled by Stripe, so no card details are stored by Landlords Diary.

Start your diary with one property. Free, forever.

No card, no trial clock. Add a property, tick what applies, and the next reminder is already on its way.
