What East Midlands landlords need ready

The database asks for your details, each property's details, the tenancy and rent, your gas safety, electrical (EICR) and EPC certificates, and any HMO or other licence. In East Midlands, 8 of 35 councils run an additional or selective licensing scheme that is in force or approved, so check your council below before you register.

278,977 homes in the region have a latest EPC lodged as privately rented. Of those with a valid certificate, 128,926 are rated D or lower, which matters for the EPC C target for 2030.

Mandatory HMO licensing still applies to properties let to 5 or more people from 2 or more households; confirm with the council. "Rated D–G": share of the latest privately rented EPCs below band C (MHCLG EPC data, our analysis).
