For UK property managers (2026)
Property managers acting on behalf of landlords carry the same MLR-2017 obligation as the letting agent themselves: every let into their managed properties must screen tenant and landlord against the UK consolidated sanctions list. Plus the MEES 2030 deadline means every managed property under an EPC band D or worse needs a documented plan well before October 2030, and the regulator now expects evidence on file at the point of let.
Certaby runs the AML check on every let in a portfolio in one transaction, with the same audit-cert PDF format as letting agents use directly. For portfolios with 50+ active managed properties, the bulk CSV flow runs one batch per quarter (or on a custom schedule) and emits one PDF per property plus a portfolio-level summary. Same per-check pricing; volume tiers from 50, 200, and 1,000 packs.

Do I need to re-screen tenants and landlords every year, or only at the new let?
MLR-2017 reg 28(11) requires ongoing monitoring of the business relationship. For property managers this means at minimum a re-screen at every let renewal and whenever there is a "change of circumstances" (new tenant moves in, new landlord assignment, new ownership of the landlord entity). Certaby supports both per-let screening and a quarterly bulk re-screen of an active portfolio for ongoing-monitoring evidence.
Does the property manager carry MEES 2030 responsibility, or only the landlord?
The landlord is the legally regulated party for MEES, but the property manager is often the one who has to demonstrate compliance to the local authority enforcement officer. Practically, property managers screen every managed property against the MEES verdict (current EPC band plus the rule trajectory to October 2030) and flag at-risk units to the landlord. Certaby returns the verdict per property in the same transaction as the AML check.
Can I batch-screen my whole portfolio in one go?
Yes. Upload a CSV with tenant + landlord + property fields per row to the bulk endpoint. Each row produces one signed PDF; the portfolio summary lists pass/review/fail counts and a downloadable archive. Bulk pricing tiers (50, 200, 1,000) match the per-check pricing volume bands.
Can Certaby integrate with my property management CRM (Reapit, Alto, iamproperty)?
Reapit Foundations integration is on the roadmap (the partner-app stub is built; submission is gated on a Reapit developer account). Alto and iamproperty are open for direct API integration via the Stratum API (sister brand at stratumapis.com); the same backend powers the Certaby web surface. Email contact@certaby.com if you want a specific CRM integration prioritised.
How long is the audit-cert valid for an enforcement inspection?
7 years per MLR-2017 reg 40 record-keeping requirement. The hash-bound PDF plus the public certaby.com/verify/<hash> resolver means an LA enforcement officer can independently confirm the cert without contacting you. Some local authorities now ask for the verify URL as a faster check than requesting the original file.
