}Rental property obligations vary by jurisdiction, local authority, property and occupancy. Finding the answer can mean searching legislation, council websites, licensing schemes, designation documents and guidance — then working out what actually applies.
Licenseye maintains that regulatory layer for you. We collect, structure, review and monitor regulatory information so professionals and systems can move from a property to the relevant requirements, with the authority, source and effective dates behind them.
The same maintained, reviewed and versioned regulatory records power a professional workspace and an API.
For letting and managing agents, property legal teams and professional portfolio operators.
Search a property and see the regulatory requirements relevant to it. Understand which authority and jurisdiction apply, review the source behind each requirement, see effective dates and regulatory changes, and apply a consistent regulatory view across properties, branches and teams.
For property software, compliance platforms and internal data teams.
Add property-level regulatory intelligence directly to your own workflows. Query requirements by property or location, access structured applicability data, authority, source and version metadata, and react when underlying regulatory records change — without building and maintaining your own council-by-council regulatory data operation.
Replace repeated searches across council websites, PDFs and regulatory sources with a maintained regulatory dataset.
Give teams and systems the same structured interpretation of a regulation rather than recreating research property by property.
See the originating authority, source material, effective dates and review history behind published regulatory information.
Licenseye combines automated source discovery and monitoring with controlled human review. Official sources are collected and normalised into structured regulatory records. Substantive additions and changes are reviewed before publication, and previous versions are retained so regulatory information can be traced over time.
No silent changes. No anonymous answers.
Authority
The body that issued or designated the requirement.
Source
The page, document or dataset the record was derived from.
Effective dates
When a requirement starts, ends or was designated.
Review status
Who approved the record, and when it was last reviewed.
Licenseye models national, devolved and local regulatory requirements using a common structure while preserving the differences between jurisdictions and authorities. Coverage is published transparently, including source and review status, so customers can see what Licenseye currently supports.
Licenseye provides structured regulatory information and source references. Licenseye is not a regulator, government body or legal adviser and does not provide legal advice.
Licenseye is being built as the regulatory intelligence layer for RentSure, a separate landlord compliance application. The same regulatory infrastructure is designed to be available independently to professional and software customers.
Whether you need an answer while assessing a property or regulatory data inside your own software, Licenseye provides the same maintained regulatory intelligence underneath.
