Questions about HMO property sourcing in Herefordshire

What rents do HMO rooms achieve in Herefordshire?

Room rents vary by street, standard and season, so we check current comparable lets for the property rather than quote a town-wide figure.

How do Article 4 directions affect HMO investment in Herefordshire?

Where an Article 4 direction applies, turning a family house into a small HMO needs planning permission, which can be refused. We check whether the address is affected before you rely on any figures.

Can you work with my own architect or lender?

Yes. We can work to another designer's drawings or provide the cost information a lender's surveyor asks for.

Is Herefordshire a good place for an HMO?

It depends on the street, the house and Herefordshire Council's rules rather than the town alone. We appraise individual properties against planning, licensing and room-count tests before giving a view.
