Everything You Need to Know
About HMO Licences
An HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) is a property rented to multiple tenants from different households who share facilities like kitchen or bathroom.
You typically need a licence if:
– There are 5 or more tenants
– Or your council requires it for smaller shared properties
Not all — but many boroughs have additional or selective licensing rules. It depends on your location and property type.
You could face fines, legal action, or restrictions on renting your property.
Yes, but incorrect or incomplete applications can delay approval. Many landlords choose professional support to avoid mistakes.
It varies by council, but most applications take several weeks to process.
