Questions about HMO maintenance in Dronfield

What do tenants pay you?

Tenants don't pay us letting fees. Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, only certain payments such as rent and a capped deposit can be charged. Our fees page sets this out.

Can you take over a house that already has tenants?

Yes. We review the tenancies, licence and certificates at handover and list anything that needs attention before we take on day-to-day management.

What is HMO guaranteed rent?

A company leases the whole house for a fixed monthly rent and lets the rooms itself. A company let is governed by the lease terms rather than the assured tenancy rules, and owners can still be exposed if the operator breaks licensing rules, so have the lease checked by your own solicitor.

Can you manage a house that you converted for me?

Yes, and it helps. We already have the drawings, certificates and specification, so the handover into management is straightforward.
