Track rent, log deposits, and keep rent receipts for HMRC — free for UK landlords and tenants.
Most private rentals in England & Wales are Assured Shorthold Tenancies (ASTs). Deposits must be protected in a government-approved scheme within 30 days of receipt.
Landlords declare rental income via Self Assessment; rent receipts support HMRC records and tenant Housing Benefit claims. RentyBase timestamps every receipt.
Deposits are capped at five weeks’ rent (annual rent under £50,000) and must be protected in TDP, DPS, or MyDeposits within 30 days, with prescribed information given to the tenant.
General information only, not legal or tax advice. Rules vary by region and change over time — confirm with the relevant authority.
An AST is the most common form of private residential tenancy in England & Wales. It gives the tenant the right to live in the property for a fixed term, and the landlord the right to recover possession with the correct notice. RentyBase keeps the rent and deposit record for the whole tenancy.
You must protect a deposit in one of three government-approved schemes — the Deposit Protection Service (DPS), MyDeposits, or the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS) — within 30 days of receiving it, and give the tenant the prescribed information.
