HMOs in Alfreton are licensed and regulated by Amber Valley Borough 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.
Because we also build and repair HMOs, problems found at an inspection can be priced and fixed by the same team.
