I was about to bid on a flat with only 58 years left on the lease. Before The Hammer flagged it straight away. Would have cost me £12,000 to sort. Absolute lifesaver.

BTL investor, Manchester
The compliance calendar alone is worth it. I used to run a spreadsheet for 12 properties. Now I get alerts before anything expires. Gas safety, EICR — all tracked automatically.

HMO landlord, Bristol
It's now part of how I analyse deals — it's saved me a significant amount of time and given me greater confidence before progressing, especially useful when assessing auction properties.
