Sale and tenancy get grouped together because both can trigger a request for a formal electrical report.
In practice, the report need is different. A sale is usually about evidence for buyers, surveyors or
solicitors. A tenancy in England is more often about meeting the landlord safety requirement properly and
knowing what happens if the report comes back unsatisfactory.
What this usually means
Sale and tenancy get grouped together because both can trigger a request for a formal electrical report,
but the report need is different: a sale is usually about evidence for buyers, surveyors or solicitors,
while a tenancy in England is more often about meeting the landlord safety requirement properly and

Basic information
Postcode and whether this is for a sale, a landlord check, a new tenancy, or follow-on work after a
report.
Property type and anything useful about size, layout or access.
Any existing EICR, survey comments, agent or solicitor questions, or dates you are working to.
Clear photos of the consumer unit and any visible issues already being raised.
During a sale
Common triggers are survey comments, missing certificates, an older consumer unit, repeated tripping,
DIY changes or worries about the age of the wiring.
A clear report helps move the conversation away from vague concern and towards a practical next step:
satisfactory, remedials needed, or further investigation.
During a tenancy
If the report requires remedial work or further investigation, that follow-up needs to be handled and
documented within the required timescale.
Between tenancies is often the simplest point to arrange access, inspection and any follow-on work
before avoidable delay builds up.
What can change the scope
Limited access to rooms, cupboards, lofts, outbuildings or tenanted areas can affect timing and
inspection scope.
Older boards, mixed-age wiring, extensions, DIY changes or visible damage can turn a simple report
request into wider remedial planning.
If you only need help with one local fault, a repair or fault-finding visit may make more sense than
starting with a full EICR.
Unusual tenancy or licensing arrangements may need a more specific compliance check than a
straightforward private let.
