Assessment basis

Clear scope, conservative conclusions

LetClear evaluates recorded facts against supported, versioned checks. It does not determine legal validity and deliberately withholds an estimate where the route depends on facts the engine does not model.

Coverage register reviewed: 21 September 2026.

This register describes implemented checks, including historical rules. It is not a live source-health report or legal sign-off. Your assessment applies the relevant effective dates and reports missing facts and unresolved source reviews.

Limits and checks you must arrange separately

Council licensing designations and licence conditions require an address-specific review. LetClear records that review; it does not determine applicability.
Rent increases, rent repayment orders, planning, building control and the full range of housing hazards are outside the modelled checks.
Possession support does not establish ground eligibility, notice validity, service or entitlement to possession. England Form 3A generation remains disabled because notice generation is outside the current product scope.

Welsh Government property licensing

Limits and checks you must arrange separately

Council property licensing is separate from Rent Smart Wales registration and licensing. Address-specific schemes and licence conditions require a recorded review.
Rent increases, all variations of contract terms, changed contract-holder statement duties and legacy court proceedings are not comprehensively modelled.
Possession checks are partial preparation support. Delivery of safety documents, prohibited payments, holding deposits, withdrawn notices and every Schedule 9A restriction require separate review; no notice validity or entitlement is determined.

Notice calculator boundaries

no fault landlord noticeCautious estimate
Live Wales output independently derives a cautious Section 173 RHW16/RHW17 estimate and the initial six-month service-restriction treatment from recorded contract-category and transition facts. It distinguishes the modelled Schedule 8A two-month categories from the narrower modelled Schedule 9 restriction exemptions. It does not validate prior notices, written-statement restrictions, retaliatory-eviction risk, service method, or final notice validity.

Limits and checks you must arrange separately

Landlord registration does not replace HMO licensing. Council applicability, occupancy and licence conditions require a recorded review.
Rent increases, rent adjudication, planning and specialist tenancies are outside the modelled checks. The Repairing Standard checklist records evidence, not an inspection or certification.
Possession support does not establish a ground, reasonableness, valid service or a tribunal outcome. New or changed statutory duties remain subject to source review.
