HMO rules in Sandwell Council

Rule	Sandwell Council
Mandatory HMO licence (5+ people)	In force everywhere in England
Additional HMO licensing	In force Whole borough, 1 October 2024 to 30 September 2029
Selective licensing	None found
Article 4 direction for small HMOs	Proposed Cabinet approved an immediate borough-wide direction on 14 October 2026; not confirmed as in force when checked

Checked October 2026 against Sandwell Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.

Sandwell Council's cabinet approved an immediate borough-wide Article 4 direction on 14 October 2026. We could not confirm whether it has been made, so we check with the council before any change of use. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Sandwell Council also runs additional licensing across its whole area (until 30 September 2029), so smaller HMOs with three or four people from two or more households need a licence too.

What landlords in Wednesbury ask us

How do Article 4 directions affect HMO investment in Wednesbury?

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.

Will you manage the house after the conversion?

Yes. Our turnkey service can run from purchase support through design, build and licensing to letting and management.

Do you give financial or investment advice?

No. We provide property, planning, licensing and building information. For finance, tax and investment decisions, speak to a regulated adviser.

What rents do HMO rooms achieve in Wednesbury?

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