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.

Questions about HMO property sourcing in Wellington

Can you find HMO properties for me in Wellington?

Yes. We look for houses whose layout, planning position and licensing requirements suit HMO use, and share the checks we've done on each one.

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.

Do you charge for an HMO appraisal in Wellington?

Talk to us about the property first. We'll explain what an appraisal involves for that house before you commit to anything.

What rents do HMO rooms achieve in Wellington?

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