What you can track
The Utilities tab (inside Finances → Utilities) lets you record details for:
- Gas
- Electricity
- Water
- Broadband
- Council tax
What to record
For each utility:
- Provider name — e.g. British Gas, Octopus Energy
- Account number — useful during a void or change of tenancy
- Contract end date — triggers a reminder before the contract expires
- Bills included — tick this if the rent includes bills. LetSense records the cost as an expense automatically.
Contract end reminders
When a contract end date is set, LetSense sends a reminder 30 days before it expires so you have time to renew or switch supplier.
Void periods
During a void period, utility responsibility typically reverts to the landlord. The property Overview tab shows a utility responsibility card during void periods as a reminder.
