Questions about this template

Is this template legally binding?+

The template produces a document that, once completed and signed by the parties, has the same legal effect as any written agreement. LetSafe UK provides self-help templates, not legal advice — for advice on your specific circumstances, consult a regulated solicitor.

What format is the download?+

You receive an editable Microsoft Word (DOCX) file and a typeset PDF immediately after payment. You can fill the DOCX in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.

Can I use this template again for another property?+

Yes — the template is licensed for unlimited use by a single private landlord across your own portfolio. It is not licensed for resale or for use by letting agents acting for third parties.

What if the regulation changes?+

Free updates are included for 12 months from purchase. We maintain a regulation-currency register and re-issue the template when the underlying law moves.
