Walsall Council has an Article 4 direction across its whole area, so turning a family house in Darlaston into a small HMO needs planning permission. Before we take a house on, we check it has the planning status it needs. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Walsall Council runs additional licensing in nine wards, including Palfrey, Paddock, Pleck, St Matthew's, Blakenall, Birchills Leamore, Darlaston South and Willenhall South, so smaller HMOs there need a licence too. We check whether the address in Darlaston is covered.

HMO guaranteed rent for Darlaston landlords
