Everything expensive about a rental started small, quiet, and on a night nobody wanted to make a phone call. Landy puts you and your tenant on one screen, so the cheap version is the one you see.
No card. Add a property in a few minutes, then invite your tenant with a code.
16 Mahoe Street, Papatoetoe
Property added
Five standards opened. None of them assessed yet.
Heat pump in — living room
7.1kW, so that is the heating standard met.
Extract fan barely pulling
Photo of the fogged mirror, sent on a Sunday. Swapped by Wednesday.
Tenancy changed. The people who moved in see the same history you do.
Routine inspection
Nothing wrong. Photos and notes attached anyway.
Drip under the kitchen sink
Reported 8:42pm with a photo. Plumber booked before breakfast.
Ceiling insulation topped up
R-value re-checked, installer's statement attached.
Append-only. Every entry is time-stamped and attributed, and can't be edited or deleted after the fact.
Self-managing landlords with two to eight rentals — and the people living in them. Not property managers.
Lost texts, a spreadsheet nobody updates, and the shoebox of receipts you'd rather not open.
Not accounting, not rent collection, not a full property-management suite. Maintenance and compliance, done properly.
Your tenant points the camera at it in the room they are standing in. It reaches you with the picture attached.
Move a job along as it happens. The photo and the conversation come with it, so nobody re-explains which tap.
Heating, insulation, ventilation, moisture, draughts — each holding the evidence you would otherwise be hunting for.
Put the date in and you get a nudge before it comes round. Your tenant can see it coming too.
Every entry stamped with who and when, and unchangeable afterwards. Not by your tenant, and not by you.
CSV or a printable summary whenever you want it — your accountant, your insurer, or whoever buys the place.
A tube of sealant, and nine months between the two versions of this job. The only thing that differs is whether the person who noticed had somewhere to put it.
Those two figures illustrate the same job caught early and caught late. They are not an average — Landy is new and has no customer data to average yet. When it does, we will quote that instead.
The evidence is never the hard part on the day you file it. It is hard two years later, when someone asks and the installer's statement is in an email you can no longer find. Each standard holds its own.
Fixed heating capable of warming the main living room to 18°C.
Ceiling and underfloor insulation meeting current R-value rules.
Openable windows in habitable rooms, extract fans in kitchen and bath.
Efficient drainage and a ground moisture barrier where it applies.
Block unnecessary gaps in walls, ceilings, floors and unused fireplaces.
Nothing to buy anywhere in the app, no limit on properties, and no countdown running in the background. It will not be free forever — when there is a price you will hear it well before it starts.

Add the address, send the code, and the next thing that goes wrong reaches you while it is still small enough to be annoying rather than expensive.
