Managing an HMO without the headaches

Houses in multiple occupation can deliver strong yields but come with extra responsibilities.

Licensing

Larger HMOs need a licence from the local council, and some councils run additional licensing schemes. Check with your council.

Rent from several tenants

Track each sharer's rent separately so you know exactly who is behind.

Extra safety duties

HMOs often require fire doors, alarms and regular checks of communal areas. Keep certificates and inspection records organised.

Repairs move fast

With more people, repairs come in more often. Logging jobs and sending them to contractors quickly keeps tenants happy.
