Advice for people who live in or own shared housing (HMO)

Do you live in, or own and rent rooms in, a house that is shared with other people? This is called a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO)
There are separate laws to cover this type of accommodation which include number of facilities, fire precautions and room sizes.

If you need any information please ring The Housing Enforcement Team on 01952 381878

Landlords should be aware that mandatory HMO licensing came into force in Spring 2006. If you need any further advice please contact the above telephone number or click on one of the following links:-
