A shared house in Leominster has to work for the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We look at all three before we agree terms.
We cover HR6 and the neighbouring postcodes, with the same approach in Leominster as anywhere else in Herefordshire.
HMO rules in Herefordshire Council
| Rule | Herefordshire Council |
|---|---|
| Mandatory HMO licence (5+ people) | In force everywhere in England |
| Additional HMO licensing | Not confirmed |
| Selective licensing | Not confirmed |
| Article 4 direction for small HMOs | Not confirmed |
Checked October 2026 against Herefordshire Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Herefordshire Council's Article 4 position from its own website, so we check it with the council for the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Herefordshire Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
Room lets and tenant find in Leominster: what we do
We let HMO rooms in Leominster for owners who manage their own houses, from a single room to every room as it falls vacant. Each advert shows the asking rent, and each applicant is referenced and checked in the same way before any paperwork is signed.
Room lets in Leominster follow the same national rules as anywhere in England: assured periodic tenancies, no bidding, no blanket bans and limits on rent in advance. Where the house needs an HMO licence, we check the licence conditions on occupancy before letting each room.
