Q&A

Does "We Pay for Safety Certificates" include the initial checks before the lease starts?

Great question - and an important one!

When we say "we cover property certificates", we’re referring to all ongoing compliance certificates (GSC, EICR, PAT, EPC, Legionella) during the lease period with us.

However, before we can sign the lease, your property must already meet the legal standards required for renting in Scotland. That means any initial costs to bring the property up to standard (if needed) are the landlord’s responsibility.

We’re happy to help arrange everything and make sure you meet all legal obligations — but those first steps must be completed before the lease begins.
