HMOs in Newark-on-Trent are licensed and regulated by Newark and Sherwood District 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.
Our team is based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 59 miles from Newark-on-Trent, which keeps inspections and property visits easy to arrange.
