Purpose
This article explains how to use Kamma Quick Check to identify which licensing schemes a property falls into and what licence it requires.
What you’ll learn
In this article, you’ll learn how to:
Run a pre-instruction licensing check
Run a pre-tenancy licensing check
View and download a Quick Check report
What is Quick Check?
Quick Check allows you to instantly check:
Which licensing schemes apply to a property
What licence is required, if any
You can use it in two ways:
Pre-instruction check – enter an address to see which schemes apply
Pre-tenancy check – enter the address plus the number of people and households to see the licence required based on occupancy
Steps
Step 1: Open Quick Check
Log in to Kamma Suite (https://suite.kammadata.com/)
Click Quick Check in the left-hand navigation
If your organisation has access, you’ll see:
A form to enter property details
A list of previous checks completed by your organisation
Step 2: Enter the property address
Start typing in the Address field
Select the correct property from the dropdown list
Step 3: Enter occupancy details (optional)
If you know how many people will be living in the property:
Enter the number of people
Enter the number of households
This is required for a pre-tenancy check.
Quick tip:
A household is defined as related people living together.
Examples:
Three friends living together → 3 households
A cohabiting couple → 1 household
A family of four → 1 household
Step 4: Run the check
Click Check Address
The results will appear below the form.
Step 5: View or download a report
If your organisation has access to downloadable reports:
Click Download Report
You can print or download the report for your records
Printed reports can be useful at valuation appointments, helping you to demonstrate licensing knowledge to landlords and win instructions.
What happens next
The results show which schemes apply and the licence required
You can use this information to advise landlords before instruction or tenancy
