Members who are a Principal, Partner or Director of a property company that handles client money or entrusts the handling of its client’s money to an unnamed Client Accounting Service Provider (CASP) must have their client account inspected.
Accounts are inspected through supplying an Accountant’s Report completed by a chartered/certified accountant or through The Letting Partnership’s HealthCheck. You do not need to provide an Accountant’s Report or HealthCheck if your company is regulated by RICS, the Law Society or the Law Society of Scotland. Instead we accept evidence that your company is regulated by one of those organisations.
Client money is any money held by a company or its CASP which it is not beneficially entitled to. Examples include:
You will need to provide an Accountant’s Report or HealthCheck for each company you are legally responsible for. You will need to provide this on an annual basis and within six months of your company's financial year end.

Late submission of documentation can be pursued as a disciplinary matter outside of the disciplinary procedures. In these circumstances members may not have an opportunity to explain any reasons for their delay and it will likely result in an automatic fine. Members who persistently fail to provide their documents will have their membership terminated. More info...
