The drawer of paperwork,
actually organised.
No tenants. No lettings clutter. Just your house — when the boiler was last serviced, where the deeds are, what the extension cost, and which appliance is still under warranty.
Everything about the building, in one place.
Not a folder of scans. Each of these is a record with dates on it, so the house can tell you when something is due.
Certificates
Gas, electrical, EPC. Filed with the date they run out, so the house knows before you do.
Deeds and documents
Title, searches, warranties, manuals, the survey you paid for and never found again.
Work and cost
Who did the loft, what it cost, what they guaranteed — the thing a buyer asks for in five years.
Floor plan
Draw it once. Place the boiler, the meters, the stopcock — each becomes a record.
Appliances
Model, serial, warranty end and service interval. The paperwork that lives in a kitchen drawer.
Repairs
What went wrong, who fixed it, what it cost — with the photos still attached.
The house tells you what is due.
Every appliance carries its own service interval. Corbely counts forward from the last one and puts it on a calendar — so a boiler service is something you are reminded of, not something you remember in February.
The same mechanism runs the certificates. A homeowner has fewer statutory duties than a landlord, and the ones you do have still expire.
Let it out later, and nothing starts over.
Move abroad, move in with someone, inherit a second place — the moment a tenancy exists, the rentals layer switches on around the record you already have. The gas certificates you filed as an owner are the gas certificates your tenant is protected by.

Start with the house you're in.
No tenants required, and nothing to migrate if that changes.
