An HMO in Lichfield 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.

Because we also manage and maintain HMOs, we design with day-to-day running in mind: hard-wearing finishes, sensible storage and layouts that keep shared spaces usable.
