The 14-day removal clock, finally under control
Cerevantix Estate Agency Sale Boards tracks every For Sale, To Let, Sold and Let By board from installation to statutory removal — so your agency never faces a council enforcement fine for a board left up too long.
The problem
UK advertising-consent rules give agencies just 14 days to remove a For Sale, To Let, Sold or Let By board after a sale or let completes. Breaches trigger council enforcement notices and fines of up to £2,500 per offence — yet boards are installed and removed by third-party contractors the agency does not directly control. Today the removal clock lives in spreadsheets, shared calendars or email threads with the contractor, so the first sign of a problem is often the council calling.
The solution
Cerevantix Estate Agency Sale Boards gives every board a structured compliance record: board type, consent class, conservation-area and listed-building flags, and an automatically computed statutory removal deadline. Automated reminders and contractor emails fire as the clock runs down, colour-coded urgency makes overdue boards impossible to miss, and a full audit trail is ready the moment a council enforcement officer asks for proof.
Everything a compliant agency needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Standalone, zero-dependency install
Runs on its own with no proprietary real-estate platform required — create and manage boards immediately on a clean Odoo install.
Auto-sequenced board references
Every board gets a unique BRD/YYYY/NNNNN reference so staff and contractors can refer to a specific board without ambiguity.
Purpose-built compliance fields
Board type, contractor, board area in square metres, consent class and statutory removal deadline are captured as structured, reportable data — not buried in free-text notes.
Draft-to-Done workflow with full audit trail
A Draft, Confirmed, Done, Cancelled lifecycle with chatter tracking records exactly who changed what and when, giving you the evidence trail a council enquiry demands.
Automated removal-deadline reminders
A daily check schedules an activity for the responsible agent as the 14-day deadline approaches or lapses, so nobody has to remember to look.
Contractor email notifications
Installation and removal instructions are emailed to the board contractor automatically, turning a passive data field into an action that actually gets the board taken down.
Conservation-area and listed-building flagging
Boards on conservation-area or listed-building properties are flagged high risk so staff give the highest-fine-risk sites the attention they warrant.
Colour-coded urgency everywhere
List and kanban views decorate every board red when overdue, amber when due within three days and green once removed, so the most important fact is the most visible.
Board analytics and reporting
Group and filter boards by status, agent, customer, board type and month, and review counts by stage and by agent in dedicated graph and pivot views.
How it works
Log the board
Record the property address, board type, contractor and consent class the moment a board goes up.

Automated activities and contractor emails fire as the 14-day deadline approaches or passes.
Close the loop

No. Estate Agency Sale Boards is fully standalone — it installs and runs on a clean Odoo 20 database with only the standard Mail app as a dependency. The parent sale or let is linked by a simple reference field, not a hard dependency on any other module.
