Property licensing compliance inside MRI Sales and Lettings.
Know which of your MRI Sales and Lettings properties need a licence, across the whole portfolio MRI holds. Kamma works alongside MRI, on the records your team already has open.

How Kamma connects to MRI
Three steps, and none of them change your CRM.
Add Kamma to your browser
Kamma's connector runs as a browser extension that sits alongside MRI Sales and Lettings. Your team installs it once. MRI Sales and Lettings itself is not modified, and there is no migration of your data.
Kamma reads the fields it needs
With the connector active, Kamma reads the property and tenancy fields required for a licensing determination out of MRI Sales and Lettings: the address, the property type and the occupancy. Nobody re-keys anything into a second system.
Get the answer where the work happens
The licensing position shows on the property record you have open, and the app's home screen gives your branch's overall compliance position without leaving MRI Sales and Lettings. Every property also syncs into Kamma Suite, so the full portfolio view and the reporting are there when you want them.
What Kamma reads from MRI
Kamma reads the fields a licensing determination depends on. It does not alter your records.
Answer both licensing questions without leaving MRI.
Open Kamma on a property in MRI and you get two tabs. One tells you what a property would need at a given occupancy. The other tells you where it stands today.
What would this property need?
Enter the number of occupants and households, and you get the answer for that address with the reasoning shown. It's the tab for valuations and appraisals, including properties that aren't on your books yet.
Where does this property stand today?
The licensing position Kamma holds for the property, worked out from the tenancies synced from MRI. There's nothing to type, because nothing here is hypothetical.
What the MRI integration unlocks in Kamma Suite
Agencies running MRI at scale get one lettings compliance position across every property, rather than a per-branch answer.
Compliance monitoring across the whole portfolio
Every property that syncs from MRI is monitored against the schemes in force where it sits. Kamma flags what needs a licence, what is in breach, what is expiring, and what will need a licence when an upcoming scheme starts.
A dashboard that says what to do next
Compliance status and the priority actions summarised in one view, so the team knows where the time is best spent rather than working down a list of everything.
Email alerts without logging in
A portfolio compliance snapshot by email, so whoever owns lettings compliance sees the position and the priority actions without opening Kamma at all.
Schemes before they start
Kamma tracks newly announced schemes and works out which of your properties will need a licence when one begins. That is the window in which applications are calm and cheap rather than urgent.
Filters that match how the work is actually done
Filter your MRI portfolio by compliance status, licence type required, licence expiry, local authority, branch, the property manager responsible, or properties caught by an upcoming scheme. Action Required surfaces applications in progress and incomplete or unrecognised addresses.
Article 4 and HMO planning constraints
See whether a property sits in an Article 4 direction area, where permitted development rights are restricted and planning permission may be needed before a conversion to an HMO. London properties are also flagged where room sizes may fall below the minimum standards.
Licence conditions tracked as work, not paperwork
Fire safety works, electrical inspections and the other conditions a council attaches to a licence can be logged and tracked to completion, with a property marked non-compliant if a task falls overdue.
Tenancy changes that change the answer
Concurrent tenancies at one property are aggregated so occupants and households produce the correct licence requirement, which is what room-by-room HMO letting needs. More than one licence can sit against a property, so a renewal can be tracked while the existing licence stays in place.
An audit trail you can show a council
A full history of changes to a property and its licensing information, with the timestamp and the person who made each change.
Getting started with Kamma and MRI
Your onboarding contact sets the MRI connection up with your operations lead and walks the team through it. Most agencies are looking at their own portfolio position within 30 minutes.
MRI and Kamma, common questions
Does Kamma work with MRI Sales and Lettings?
Yes. Kamma reads the property and tenancy fields it needs from MRI Sales and Lettings and shows each property's UK licensing position alongside the record.
Is this the same as the MRI Radar integration?
No, they are separate MRI products and Kamma connects to each. MRI Sales and Lettings is the sales and lettings CRM. MRI Radar, formerly CML Software, is the property management platform. If you run both, Kamma covers both.
Does Kamma write compliance data into MRI?
No. Kamma reads from MRI and shows the licensing position alongside your records. Your MRI data is not modified.
Which parts of the UK does the licensing analysis cover?
England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, across mandatory HMO, additional and selective licensing. Scheme boundaries and start dates are tracked daily, which matters most for agencies operating across several local authorities.
A property isn't showing in Kamma. What's happened?
Either it hasn't synced yet, which newly added properties often haven't, or the address couldn't be matched to a real property. Check whether it appears in Kamma Suite: if it does, the next sync will pick it up; if it doesn't, correcting the address in your CRM will fix it.
What does "Unknown" mean on a property?
That Kamma couldn't determine the position, usually because it doesn't hold the occupancy information yet. It isn't the same as "No licence required", which means Kamma has checked and nothing is needed.
What is property licensing, and why does it sit with the agent?
Most UK councils require a licence to let certain properties, either because the property is a house in multiple occupation or because the council has designated an additional or selective licensing scheme covering the area. Letting an unlicensed property that needs a licence can attract a civil penalty of up to 30,000 pounds and a rent repayment order of up to twelve months' rent. Agents are usually the party expected to know.
What does the integration cost?
CRM connectivity is part of Kamma rather than a separately priced integration. What you pay depends on portfolio size and the tier you need. The pricing page carries the current tiers.
