Live webinar: 30 June 2026 2 PM
Physical documents are dead.
And that's a good thing.
Fraud flags are up 78%, so we are making direct income verification the new standard for eligible applicants.
Join Goodlords fraud and referencing experts live on 30 June at 2 PM to see how direct-to-source verification is changing referencing for good.
AI tools are making fraudulent documents easier to produce and harder to catch through manual review. Goodlord referencing data shows fraud-related flags have risen 78% year-on-year, with some areas of the UK seeing significantly higher levels of suspicious activity than others.
What you will learn:
-
The fraud landscape: how fraud, AI-generated document manipulation, and rising compliance pressure are reshaping referencing, backed by the data.
-
Direct verification, the new normal: why connecting straight to a tenant's bank, payroll provider, or HMRC is replacing documents as the default standard.
-
Stronger verification, better tenancies: the link between verification quality and tenancy outcomes, and what's changing from 1 July 2026 as Trusted Sources becomes available to verify tenants' income.
-
The impact on claims, landlords, and your team: what this means for your claims process, the confidence you can offer landlords, and what your team needs to do to be ready.

Why this matters now
Fraud Prevention
Income data connected directly from a tenant's bank, payroll provider or HMRC removes the risk associated with uploaded documents.
Speed and efficiency
Verification happens within the existing referencing journey and verified data appears automatically in the referencing report.

Provides the first layer of protection by helping agents and landlords make better-informed decisions using verified income directly from the source.
