A new website has launched, claiming to be the “legally watertight” way for landlords and tenants to enter into a private tenancy arrangement. Helloguest.co.uk has been created by an short term rental management company and a solicitor, aiming to provide peace of mind for tenants and landlords alike. The site provides landlords with quick and easy access to complete free council-approved tenancy agreements, automatically generates section 21 and 8 notices, and helps carry out references and arrange EPC and gas-safe certificates. The site prompts landlords to issue notices and agreements before it’s too late, and if a landlord tries to do something outside the proper legal timeframe, it doesn’t permit it. For tenants, the site claims to ensure that landlords listed on the website are operating legally through a series of prompts, reminders, and time-sensitive commands. It also enables potential renters to make online appointments with landlords, who can enter their availability into the site diary. It is the perfect relationship between short-term renters, holiday lets and landlords. Toby France, founder of HelloGuest, said: “We have property guides for both tenants and landlords, and our automatically generated tenancy agreement ensures the tenancy gets off to a legally-binding start. “Our legal timeline prompts then ensure the management continues to be law-abiding.” France said further tenant protection is provided through a safe, secure online messaging system, which allows landlords and tenants to communicate. “All the messages are stored on the HelloGuest server and cannot be deleted or altered in any way, resulting in a written record of all conversations exchanged. “It’s always best to have landlord-tenant discussions in writing, and our messaging service records everything that’s exchanged for further reference.” It’s free to register with HelloGuest until the end of 2026 – to find out more, click here.
