Lettings Launch Kit
Starting a letting agency should be about building the business, not spending weeks trying to work out which account, protection scheme and provider you need first.
The Lettings Launch Kit brings the key pieces together in one place, helping new agents get the client money and operational side set up properly from day one.
Delivered in association with Total Property, the Launch Kit combines access to mydeposits, Property Redress Scheme and Client Money Protect with a TLP client account and outsourced client accounting service.
Included as part of your launch setup
Starting from scratch
A new letting agency may need redress, Client Money Protection, deposit protection, a client account, client accounting processes and the right software before it can operate properly.
The difficulty is that getting one part in place can depend on another already being arranged. For a new business, that can quickly turn into a frustrating loop of applications, requirements and paperwork.

The Lettings Launch Kit brings together many of the key client money, compliance and operational services needed when setting up a letting agency. Depending on your requirements, this can include Client Money Protection (CMP), redress scheme membership, tenancy deposit protection, ICO registration, a dedicated TLP client account, outsourced client accounting and supported software.
