If the property is in Bulwell, the council that matters is Nottingham City Council. We look up its current schemes for the address and note any conditions it usually attaches to licences.
Because we also build and repair HMOs, problems found at an inspection can be priced and fixed by the same team.

Checked October 2026 against Nottingham City Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
Nottingham City Council has an Article 4 direction across its whole area, so turning a family house in Bulwell into a small HMO needs planning permission. Before we take a house on, we check it has the planning status it needs. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Nottingham City Council also runs additional licensing across its whole area (until 31 December 2028), so smaller HMOs with three or four people from two or more households need a licence too.
