Telford & Wrekin Council has confirmed a borough-wide Article 4 direction that starts on 27 February 2027. From then, turning a family house in Oakengates 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.

Our HMO room letting service in Oakengates

We let HMO rooms in Oakengates 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 Oakengates 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.

What landlords in Oakengates ask us

Who keeps the HMO licence conditions up to date?

As managing agent we keep the compliance diary: certificates, fire alarm testing records, inspections and anything the licence conditions require.

What is HMO guaranteed rent?

A company leases the whole house for a fixed monthly rent and lets the rooms itself. A company let is governed by the lease terms rather than the assured tenancy rules, and owners can still be exposed if the operator breaks licensing rules, so have the lease checked by your own solicitor.

How do you find tenants for rooms in Oakengates?

We advertise each room, carry out viewings, reference applicants and handle move-in, with rooms let under the tenancy rules in force at the time.

Do you handle repairs as well as lettings?

Yes. Our maintenance team carries out repairs and planned work, so reported problems don't wait for a separate contractor to be found.
