HMOs in Wellington are licensed and regulated by Telford & Wrekin 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.

Telford & Wrekin Council has confirmed a borough-wide Article 4 direction that starts on 27 February 2027. From then, turning a family house in Wellington into a small HMO will need planning permission, so we check your programme against that date. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Telford & Wrekin Council revoked a planned borough-wide additional licensing scheme in September 2026, so the mandatory licence for five or more people is the main one to plan for.

HMO management for Wellington landlords

Our HMO management in Wellington covers the whole cycle of a shared house: letting rooms, collecting rent, arranging repairs and keeping the licence conditions and certificates in date. We check the local council's licensing scheme for the address before taking a house on, because conditions vary across Shropshire.

For owners in Wellington, we can also help with registration on the PRS Database, which is due to open region by region from 15 December 2026, starting in the West Midlands, subject to Parliament approving the regulations. Repairs are handled by our own maintenance team.

HMO management in Wellington: common questions

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.

Do you manage HMOs across Wellington?

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

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.

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.
