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.
Our team is based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 38 miles from Beeston. That keeps survey visits, site meetings and follow-up inspections easy to arrange.

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.
HMO licence applications in Beeston: what we do

Mandatory licensing applies to every HMO with 5 or more occupiers, but additional or selective schemes can bring smaller houses into licensing too.
