What can my tenant actually see about their tenancy?

Their tenancy details, documents, meter readings, rent history and inventory report — never your vetting records, notes, repair costs or landlord-only files.

Tenants see a deliberately narrow slice, and the restriction is enforced on the server, not by hiding things in the interface.

  • They can see — their tenancy's status and terms, documents relevant to them (safety certificates, the agreement, the inventory report), meter readings, their rent payment history, and any maintenance requests on their tenancy.
  • They cannot see — the vetting checklist and everything on it, any document marked landlord-only, your private notes, your supplier database, what a repair cost you, or any invoice you've attached to a maintenance request.

Worth knowing: Repair costs and invoices are stripped out of tenant responses on the server before they're ever sent, rather than simply not rendered. A tenant can't retrieve them by any route.

Not legal advice

These answers describe how Tenarize works and summarise the law in England as the product implements it. They are not legal advice about your situation, and the law changes. For free independent help, Citizens Advice and Shelter both cover renting in England; for anything unusual or contested, take advice from a solicitor.

Tenarize does not currently support Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, whose tenancy regimes are different.
