Most of the cost and risk in an HMO is decided at the design stage. In Hereford we start by measuring every room and checking Herefordshire Council's position on licensing and planning, then build the specification around it.

What landlords in Hereford ask us

Do you supply fire doors and alarms as part of a conversion?

Yes. Fire doors, the alarm system and emergency lighting are specified to the fire risk of the house and included in the price, not added later.

Can you convert part of a building above a shop in Hereford?

Often, yes. Flats above shops need extra attention to fire separation from the commercial unit, and we assess this at survey stage.

Can you work on a house I haven't bought yet in Hereford?

Yes. We can survey before you buy and tell you the likely room count, the planning and licensing position and a guide cost, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

Do I need planning permission to convert a house to an HMO in Hereford?

It depends on the number of occupants and whether Herefordshire Council has an Article 4 direction covering the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We check the position for your street before quoting.
