Derbyshire is in the East Midlands. HMO licensing and planning decisions here are made by 9 councils, so the rules for a house depend on which one it falls in.
Every job starts the same way: a check of the council's rules for the address, a survey or review of the house, then written terms or a fixed written quote.
