An HMO in Beeston has to work for three audiences: the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We design with all three in mind and price the result in writing.
We can keep a photographic record of each stage, which is useful evidence when the council inspects or a buyer's surveyor asks questions later.

Broxtowe Borough Council's Article 4 direction covers parts of the Beeston wards. Whether a house in Beeston needs planning permission to become a small HMO depends on whether it is inside that boundary, which we check for the exact address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Broxtowe Borough Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
