UK Right to Rent: Intermediate

Regulatory compliance - Property & Real Estate
For the people who run the checks day to day

This course is for the people in a UK estate or letting agency who actually carry out Right to Rent checks - lettings administrators, onboarding leads, negotiators, and property managers - building on Foundation awareness to run each check end to end.

You'll learn how to run the Home Office online check, IDVT for British and Irish passports, and the manual document check, how to verify documents properly, and how to handle follow-ups and records. By the end, you'll be able to carry out each check route correctly, spot a document that does not add up, run follow-ups for time-limited permission, keep records that hold the statutory excuse, and know where to find trusted Home Office guidance.
