Stop owning blind.
Someone on your side, translating London for you.
Owning UK property from abroad means two pressures at once: the rules here keep changing — Renters' Rights Act penalties up to £40,000, a new landlord register arriving late 2026 — and from where you are, it's hard to get a straight answer about any of it. CortexaProp reads what's happening in London and tells you, in plain terms, what it means and what to do next.

Most overseas owners don't know how much.
Section 21 is gone.
Every tenancy converted. The route you relied on to regain your property no longer exists.
Miss the paperwork, pay up to £40,000.
The Information Sheet, the new register, licensing — a single slip is £7,000, and it climbs.
The register is coming (late 2026).
Every landlord and every property must be listed. Agents can't market an unregistered property. We'll get you ready.
We translate, navigate, and represent you — across everything that matters.
Am I legal?
We turn Renters' Rights status, licensing, and certificate deadlines into plain language — what actually applies to you, and what to do before it becomes a penalty.
Am I keeping my money?
We navigate the cross-border reality for you. Owner Net Position™ shows what you actually keep after exposure, service charges, voids and penalties, projected 30 / 90 / 180 days.
Is everything running smoothly?
We represent your side in one shared view with your agent — maintenance and status tracked in one place, so nothing gets lost in translation and nobody has to guess what the other one knows.
What blind ownership costs
Every one of these started as something smaller and more fixable than what it became.
The Illegal Eviction
A landlord changed the locks while his tenants were away, days after taking rent from them. No possession order. No Section 8 process — just locks changed.
The Unlicensed HMO
A landlord let a property as an HMO without a licence, even while other properties in the same portfolio were already correctly licensed.
The Ban That Grew
A 30-month banning order, breached, became a five-year ban and a listing on the national rogue landlords database. It started with one missed improvement notice.
Your documents, protected.
The same discipline we apply to your compliance data applies to every file you upload.
Encrypted in transit
Every upload and download travels over TLS 1.2+ — never sent in the clear.
Privately stored
Documents live in a private Cloudflare R2 bucket. No public URL is ever generated for any file.
Access on a need-to-know basis
Row-Level Security enforces this at the database layer — only you, and agents you explicitly assign, can reach your files.
Passwords never stored
Authentication runs through Supabase Auth with bcrypt hashing — we never see or hold your password.
Standing on your side of the bridge, not the industry's.
For over a decade I managed UK properties for overseas owners based in China, the UAE, Singapore and Hong Kong. I watched the same pattern again and again: good landlords, good properties, good agents — and still blindsided, because nothing that happened in London ever reached them in a form they could actually use. CortexaProp is the bridge I wished existed for every one of those owners.
