SmartSearch: Anti-Money Laundering checks
We use the SmartSearch AML platform to carry out UK and international Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks on all landlords and tenants, helping us verify identities and meet our compliance obligations.

Landlord and tenant checks
Every landlord and tenant goes through the same checks, so you know who you’re dealing with.
Let Alliance tenant referencing
We work with Let Alliance, one of the UK’s leading tenant referencing and lettings specialists, to provide accurate affordability assessments and help identify potential fraud risks. This helps us make informed decisions when assessing prospective tenants.
Let Alliance Rent Guarantee Insurance
Optional extra, available at an additional cost
We offer Rent Guarantee Insurance through Let Alliance to help protect landlords against financial losses if a tenant fails to pay rent. Legal expenses are also covered when pursuing possession of the property, giving landlords extra peace of mind and financial protection.
Selective licensing
Renting in a licensing area?
Parts of Burnley and Padiham require every rented home to be licensed by the council, with set standards for safety and management. Every RPC home in these areas is licensed.
Universal Credit
We work closely with the DWP and local councils so you receive the housing support you’re entitled to. In many cases we arrange for the housing element to be paid directly to us, which helps you avoid arrears.
When your tenancy starts, we ask you to tell the DWP that RPC may discuss your housing payments. Need help with your online claim? Just ask.
