- Many people get confused around when they need and when they don’t need an HMO licence. Let me explain what HMO licensing is, when you need one and how you get it. We will cover the HMO licence requirements together, as well as talk about ways to reduce the cost you need to pay for it.
If you want to know more about planning, let me know in comments below and I will prepare another video on that topic.
With significant experience in HMO property investment in the UK and about 500 rooms we run through our agency in and around Birmingham, we have very successfully run the HMO strategy in property investing. In my content and my property mentoring, I always bring real life examples as an HMO specialist to help others apply HMO investing strategies with success.

Hi Saj, starting a hmo conversion. Applying for planning at present to convert from c3 to c4. When can I submit my application for an hmo licence?
Hi Saj,
I was wondering while putting through the application for a mandatory, are you able to rent out the rooms meanwhile for example a 5 bed house am I able to rent out all 5 bedrooms with the application in process?
Yes, that's how it works in Birmingham but check with your local council.
Great Content Saj. I have a 3 bedroom house that I am looking to turn into a 4 bed HMO, does it need to follow the mandatory requirement and fire safety requirement or can I just rent out each room as it is?
Fire safety is the key in HMO's. Check with your local council what their requirements are.
I have five room house and want to use as short term rental ,should i need HMO license? Can i list them om airbnb without HMO? Plz i need ans
Hello, I’m a landlord and I have a six bedroom house, I got a tenant who wants to use my house for a care home or supported living but I don’t have hmo for this property. The tenant agreed to apply for hmo when she moves in. Can the tenant use the house for multiple occupancy prior to her application for hmo being approved by local authority? What will be the implications for landlords.
Can a new purchaser take on HMO License from the previous ownership if it expires next year ? Can it be transferred as it’s still in existence?
No, the license is issued to the owner.
I m the landlord of the property. I have 4 bedroom house.i kept one bedroom with ensuite for my self.and gave 3 bedroom to one family of 4 ppl.do I still need an hmo?
Hi Saj you mentioned that if you have more than 4 people in the property you require a license. If I have 4 people within my property that are renting, do I no longer need to apply for the license for the HMO?
Depends on your local authority. They are not all the same.
Hi Saj is there any rules around fire extinguishers in HMOs?
We don't use them in our Birmingham HMO's. We do provide fire blanket. It's important to mention the requirements will vary between Local Authorities.
General guidance is that unless a fire is very small and manageable, the safest action is to vacate the property and call 999, rather than the tenants tackle the fire.
hi saj
your video is very helpful in solving some of my questions.
i watch your video from the perspective of hmo tenant.

I am a total novice to this hmo process. Let's say I have £15k savings and I am a first time buyer. I found a HMO Plot for sale, don't know the price yet and I just have the contact number of the person. How do I start a conversation with the seller or is there even a chance for me getting this plot?
HMO's are an advanced strategy and not always the best place to start for a novice. Unless, you put in the time to learn about the strategy. This video will help you. czcams.com/video/QvjtuS0rMTg/video.html
