HMOs in Long Eaton are licensed and regulated by Erewash 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.
You get one point of contact, written terms agreed for each property and regular updates on rent, repairs and compliance.
