Replace what your agent does. Keep what they charge.
Tenant communication, repairs, compliance — Abodient handles your agent's day job for a flat fee, not 10–15% of your rent.
No card required · Flat fee, no percentage
What it does
Everything your agent advertises. Without the percentage.
Most of what a letting agent charges for is mechanical. We've built it as software — AI handles the routine, you make the decisions.
Tenant comms, around the clock
Alfred, Abodient's AI assistant, answers tenant queries instantly, in whatever messenger they use — with every reply logged, so you can audit the quality anytime. Faster than an office that closes at half five, and it never goes on leave.
End-to-end repair coordination
Issue logged, quotes collected, tradesperson scheduled, completion confirmed. You approve the costs that need approving; everything else moves without you sitting between a plumber and a tenant who can never quite align.
Lift-and-shift compliance
Upload existing certificates — gas, EICR, EPC, deposit registrations, licensing — and the renewal schedule picks up where your agent left off. No starting over, and no gap in the record while you switch.
Rent monitoring with polite chasers
Payment status visible at a glance, and every payment logged for your books. Polite chasers when rent's late. Escalated only when it gets serious.
Migration checklist
A list of what to request from your agent — tenancy paperwork, deposit references, inspections, certificates. You're entitled to all of it.
Flat fee — calculate the saving
One monthly cost regardless of rent. 12% on £1,500/month is over £2,000 a year — per property. Multiply by however many you have.
Why this exists
Letting agents charge for tenant management. They mostly don't do it.
Most landlords paying 10–15% in agent fees aren't getting much for it. The tenant messages that matter reach you anyway. The repair quotes need your sign-off anyway. Compliance stays your legal responsibility regardless. You're really buying reassurance — and that turns out to be expensive. Since the Renters' Rights Act came into force in May 2026, some agents have leaned on the new complexity as a reason to stay. But the legal obligations were always yours, not theirs — and software that actually tracks them is a more honest answer than a percentage.

Common questions
Switching-from-an-agent specifics
How do I tell my agent and tenant about the switch?
We provide template letters. The tenant change is straightforward — same tenancy, new point of contact. Most management agreements need 2–3 months' notice to terminate. Abodient keeps a dated record of the handover too, so if anything is queried later — the deposit, a certificate, the notice itself — the evidence is already filed.
Will my tenant find it disruptive?
Most don't notice beyond faster responses. Alfred replies in the channel they already use, at whatever hour they message, and doesn't leave anything on read. Tenants generally prefer it — instant answers, no phone tag, no call-centre hold music.
What if my agent was doing something I'll forget about?
Onboarding includes an audit checklist — certificate dates, deposit registrations, inspection schedules, rent arrangements. Anything missing surfaces before it becomes a problem.
Is now a bad time to switch, with the Renters' Rights Act in force?
It's arguably the best time. The Act — in force since May 2026 — made record keeping matter more, not less: periodic tenancies, new possession grounds, and tighter rent-increase rules all reward the landlord who can show what happened and when. That responsibility sat with you even while the agent was in the middle. Abodient tracks the current requirements and keeps the dated evidence, which is more than most agents ever showed you.
What does Abodient actually cost?
Nothing for a single property, then a flat monthly fee banded by portfolio size — £19 for two to ten properties, £39 for eleven to fifty. There's a 30-day free trial with no card required, so you can set Abodient up alongside your agent's notice period and compare the two directly before the agreement ends. The receipt above shows how the arithmetic usually goes.
How quickly do I see the saving?
From the month your agent agreement ends. Subscription is flat — so as rents rise, the saving compounds instead of fees compounding against you.
