HMOs AND HOSTELS

we will provide you with plans for submission to your local council as part of your Application for property licence for House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) also prepare and submit your building regulations application. your property will probably need modifying to conform to conditions set out by this type of application.

HMOs and Hostels include living accommodation where facilities such as kitchen, bathroom and WC are shared by a number of occupants who otherwise live separately. The definition of a HMO for the purposes of this guidance depends on the element of self containment to the individual bedrooms or bedsits in a house or building, and the degree to which individuals live together or separately.

Although HMOs can sometimes provide useful accommodation for people who do not wish to or cannot afford to buy property, it is desirable, wherever possible, to

upgrade the standard of accommodation to that of self contained flats in the interests of health, safety and amenity for the occupants. you may not need planning permission for this type of alteration
