Hello, Yesterday, I received an invitation to go online and try out the ‘dummy’ version of the new Landlord Database.

Already having a one Gov I.D it was easy enough to register as a landlord.

The problem came when I started trying to register my properties, in particular gas and electrical certificates.

I don’t hold most of them digitally and without that there was no way to upload them to the system.

So, my friends make sure all future certificates are digital!
