Questions answered

Can letting agents send Information Sheet 2026 on behalf of landlords?

Yes, letting agents can use Ploxit to send the official GOV.UK Information Sheet 2026 PDF on behalf of their landlord clients. When setting up properties in Ploxit, agents specify the landlord as the data controller and responsible party. The audit trail clearly shows that the Information Sheet was sent by the letting agent acting on behalf of the named landlord, which is exactly what tribunals need to see for compliance evidence.

How does Ploxit handle data protection for agency arrangements?

Ploxit maintains proper GDPR compliance for agency relationships. The landlord remains the data controller (as required by law), whilst the letting agent acts as their authorised representative. During setup, agents specify the landlord's details, and all audit records reflect this arrangement. The system includes a Data Protection Agreement at signup, ensuring clear responsibilities between all parties whilst meeting UK GDPR requirements.

What appears in the audit trail for agency-managed properties?

The audit trail clearly identifies the landlord as the responsible party whilst showing that the letting agent sent the Information Sheet on their behalf. Records include the landlord's name as data controller, the property address, tenant details, and the full delivery chain: sent → opened (with IP address and user agent) → acknowledged via one-click link. This attribution is crucial for tribunal proceedings, where landlords need to demonstrate compliance even when using agent services.

Can letting agents manage multiple landlord portfolios in one Ploxit account?

Yes, letting agents can manage properties for multiple landlord clients within a single Ploxit Portfolio plan. Each property entry maintains separate landlord attribution, so audit trails remain distinct for each client. This allows agents to efficiently handle Renters' Rights Act compliance across their entire portfolio whilst keeping client documentation properly separated for tribunal purposes.

How quickly can letting agents start sending Information Sheets?

Ploxit is designed for rapid deployment – agents can set up their first property and send the Information Sheet in under 2 minutes. There's no lengthy onboarding process or complex integration required. Simply add property details, specify the landlord, enter tenant information, and send. This speed is particularly valuable for letting agents managing multiple properties with the 31 May 2026 deadline approaching.

What's different about using Ploxit versus existing property management systems?

Most legacy property management suites weren't designed for the specific requirements of the Renters' Rights Act 2025. They often lack proper audit trails, use editable PDFs instead of the official GOV.UK document, or rely on basic email without delivery confirmation. Ploxit serves the official Information Sheet 2026 PDF byte-for-byte (hash-verified), tracks every interaction, and generates tribunal-ready documentation with 6-year retention by default.

Old way: Download PDF from GOV.UK, email from personal account, hope tenant received it, keep manual records in spreadsheets.

Ploxit way: Official hash-verified PDF, automated delivery tracking, one-click tenant acknowledgment, tribunal-ready audit export with 6-year retention.

Does using Ploxit guarantee Renters' Rights Act compliance for letting agents?

No, Ploxit doesn't guarantee compliance – it provides robust evidence to support compliance arguments. The Renters' Rights Act 2025 requires landlords to provide tenants with prescribed information, but the specific delivery methods aren't rigidly defined. Ploxit's audit trail showing delivery, opening, and acknowledgment of the official GOV.UK Information Sheet creates strong documentation for tribunal proceedings, but legal compliance depends on various factors beyond just document delivery.

How does Ploxit's pricing work for letting agents?

Ploxit offers Solo plans for individual landlords and Portfolio plans for letting agents managing multiple properties. Portfolio plans are designed to be cost-effective for agencies handling numerous landlord clients, with pricing that scales appropriately. The focus is on providing value through compliance efficiency rather than bundling unnecessary features that inflate costs in traditional property management suites.

What happens if a tenant doesn't acknowledge receipt of the Information Sheet?

Ploxit tracks whether tenants open the email and click the acknowledgment link, but acknowledgment isn't required for compliance – it simply strengthens the evidence. The audit trail shows delivery attempts, email opens (with IP address and user agent data), and any acknowledgment clicks. This comprehensive tracking demonstrates reasonable efforts to ensure tenants received the required information, which is typically sufficient for tribunal purposes.

How does Ploxit compare to sending Information Sheets manually?

Manual approaches using personal email accounts, downloaded PDFs, and spreadsheet records create significant risks for letting agents. There's no guarantee the PDF hasn't been modified, no reliable delivery confirmation, and poor audit trails. Ploxit eliminates these risks by serving the official GOV.UK document hash-verified, providing comprehensive delivery tracking, and maintaining tribunal-ready records. For letting agents managing multiple clients, this efficiency and reliability is essential.

Can letting agents export compliance documentation for individual landlord clients?

Yes, Ploxit generates tribunal-ready PDF exports that can be filtered by landlord or property. This allows letting agents to provide individual landlord clients with their specific compliance documentation when needed. The exports include all relevant audit trail information whilst maintaining proper attribution to each landlord as the responsible party.
