From then, turning a family house in Telford 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.

Questions about HMO room letting in Telford

What do tenants pay you?

Tenants don't pay us letting fees. Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, only certain payments such as rent and a capped deposit can be charged. Our fees page sets this out.

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 Telford?

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.
