HMOs in Carlton are licensed and regulated by Gedling Borough Council. Before we manage, lease or appraise a house, we check whether the address falls within an additional licensing scheme or an Article 4 direction, because both change what the house needs.
Because we also build and repair HMOs, problems found at an inspection can be priced and fixed by the same team.

Gedling Borough Council has proposed an Article 4 direction for three streets in Netherfield. None was in force when we checked. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We found no additional licensing scheme in force in Gedling Borough Council, so the mandatory licence for five or more people is the main one to plan for.
How we handle HMO room letting work in Carlton
