HMOs in Daventry are licensed and regulated by West Northamptonshire Council. Before we manage, lease or appraise a house, we check whether the address falls within an additional licensing scheme or an Article 4 direction, because both change what the house needs.

Terms for management, tenant-find or guaranteed rent are agreed in writing for each property before you instruct us.

West Northamptonshire Council's Article 4 direction covers the whole former Northampton borough, not Daventry, so changing a family house here into a small HMO is usually permitted development. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. West Northamptonshire Council runs additional licensing in parts of Northampton and Daventry, so smaller HMOs there need a licence too. We check whether the address in Daventry is covered.

HMO maintenance and repairs in Daventry: common questions

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.

Do you manage HMOs across Daventry?

Yes. We manage shared houses in Daventry and across Northamptonshire, from letting individual rooms to rent collection, repairs and licence compliance.

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.
