Property management that keeps you covered

No credit card required  ·  Free for tenants  ·  £1/property/month for landlords

UK GDPR compliant End-to-end encrypted storage Hosted in the UK (AWS London) MFA on every account

Everything a landlord needs. Nothing they don't.

Six tools in one platform. All connected. No spreadsheets, no email chains, no chasing.

Property Dashboard

See the compliance status of every property at a glance. Green means you're covered. Amber or red means action is needed — with the exact document flagged.

  • Traffic light status per property
  • Expiring document warnings
  • Open issues surfaced in one view

Document Storage

Upload PDFs and images once. Landlords can access them any time; tenants get read-only access to their own documents. No more email attachments.

  • Secure cloud storage per property
  • Expiry date tracking per document
  • Retained for 6 years after tenancy

Compliance Tracking

Roost tracks the six UK baseline compliance documents for every property. Toggle off categories that don't apply — for example, no gas supply on an all-electric property.

  • AST, Gas Safety, EPC, EICR
  • Deposit protection & buildings insurance
  • Per-property toggles for your situation

Messaging

A private, logged message thread per property. Every conversation stays with the property — not lost in a personal inbox or WhatsApp chat that can't be retrieved.

  • Landlord ↔ tenant only
  • Persistent history per property
  • Email notification on new message

Issue Reporting

Tenants raise maintenance issues with a description, urgency level, and optional photo. Landlords track status — Open, In Progress, Resolved — with a full reply thread.

  • Urgency flagging (Normal / Urgent)
  • Photo uploads supported
  • Status drives property dashboard

Notifications

Automatic email alerts keep both parties informed without anyone needing to manually chase. Every key event triggers the right notification to the right person.

  • New message & issue alerts
  • Document upload notifications
  • In-app notification centre

Up and running in minutes

Three steps from sign-up to a green dashboard.

1

Add your property and invite your tenant

Enter the property address and send your tenant an email invite. They set up their account in minutes — free, always.

2

Upload your compliance documents

Upload your AST, Gas Safety, EPC, EICR, and deposit certificate. Set expiry dates so Roost can warn you before they run out.

3

Your dashboard turns green

All compliance documents in place. No outstanding issues. Dashboard goes green. That's your aha moment — everything under control, in one place.

A missed Gas Safety certificate fine starts at £6,000.

Roost costs £12 per property per year. That's less than a cup of coffee a month — for a complete paper trail and the peace of mind that you're covered.
