Dashboard Overview: Portfolio-Health KPIs
Dashboard Overview: Portfolio-Health KPIs
The Overview tab on the dashboard surfaces the five KPIs most critical to day-to-day portfolio management. Each card shows a live figure, a 30-day delta, and links directly to the relevant workflow.
KPI Cards
Active Tenancies
The total number of tenancies currently in an active state across your portfolio.
- Delta: Change vs. the previous 30 days.
- Click: Navigates to
/dashboard/tenancies. - Use it to: Confirm your portfolio size at a glance and spot unexpected drops that may indicate data gaps.
Deposits at Risk
The count of deposits that are unprotected — i.e. not lodged with an approved tenancy deposit scheme.
- Delta: Change vs. the previous 30 days.
- Click: Navigates to
/dashboard/deposits. - Use it to: Catch compliance exposure early. An unprotected deposit can result in penalties of up to 3× the deposit amount under the Renters' Rights Act.
Important: This card will show
0when all deposits are correctly protected. Any non-zero value requires action.
Reports Due This Week
Inspection reports and check-out reports with a deadline falling within the next 7 days.
- Delta: Change vs. the previous 30 days.
- Click: Navigates to
/dashboard/reports. - Use it to: Plan your week. Missing a report deadline can delay deposit release and increase dispute risk.
Avg Days to Deposit Release
A rolling average of the number of days elapsed between tenancy end and deposit return, across all recently closed tenancies.
- Delta: Change vs. the previous 30 days.
- Click: Navigates to
/dashboard/analytics. - Use it to: Benchmark your process speed. A rising average may indicate bottlenecks in inspections, negotiations, or scheme release requests.
Open Disputes
The number of deposit disputes currently active — i.e. where a tenant or landlord has formally contested proposed deductions.
- Delta: Change vs. the previous 30 days.
- Click: Navigates to
/dashboard/negotiation. - Use it to: Prioritise dispute resolution. Open disputes carry both financial and reputational risk and should be actively managed.
Data Source
All five cards are powered by the existing dashboard.workQueue data — no additional API calls or configuration are required.
Delta Indicators
Each card displays a directional delta comparing the current figure to the equivalent figure from 30 days ago:
↑ 3 since last month (increase)
↓ 2 since last month (decrease)
→ No change (flat)
For Deposits at Risk and Open Disputes, an upward delta is a negative signal. For Active Tenancies, direction depends on business context.
Navigation
Every KPI card is clickable. Clicking a card takes you directly to the section where you can take action, so the Overview tab serves as a launchpad rather than just a read-only summary.
