Your clients' stock, working harder

One verified agency account, every landlord you act for, managed across multiple Local Authorities.

Portfolios, not logins

Manage every landlord you act for under one account, with listings, bookings and documents kept separate per client.

New revenue streams

Placements offer long-term occupancy and access to guaranteed rent schemes. An easy proposition to take to your landlords.

Compliance handled

Certificates tracked for every property with reminders, and if one runs out the listing comes off the site automatically.

Everything per client, nothing mixed up

Housing Direct keeps each landlord's properties, compliance and paperwork separate, so you can act for many without losing track of any.

  • Per-portfolio view: switch between landlords, or see your whole book at once.
  • Team access: role-based accounts for negotiators and property managers.
  • Link with your existing software: integrations with the systems you already use are on the way.
  • Maintenance handled online: occupants report and track issues with photos and live messaging, 24/7.
  • Every property type: flats, houses, studios, rooms in shared properties and HMOs.

"We manage twelve landlords on Housing Direct. Listing to councils used to be its own job. Now it's part of the day."

Agent questions

Can we list on behalf of our landlords?
Yes, that's the point. You verify your agency once and confirm your authority to act for each landlord. Their properties then sit in their own portfolio under your account.
What does it cost?
Listing is free. There are no listing fees or commission, and you keep your existing arrangement with your landlords.
What types of property can we list?
Flats, houses, studios, rooms in shared properties and HMOs. If it's safe, compliant and lettable, a council near you likely needs it.
How does compliance work across many properties?
Certificates are tracked per property with reminders before anything expires. If one lapses, that listing is automatically suspended until a valid replacement is uploaded. Nothing else is affected.
Who handles maintenance?
Occupants report and track issues online 24/7, with photos and live messaging, so requests reach the right portfolio without phone tag.
