Questions about HMO room letting in Burton upon Trent

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 Burton upon Trent?

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.

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.

Do you manage HMOs across Burton upon Trent?

Yes. We manage shared houses in Burton upon Trent and across Staffordshire, from letting individual rooms to rent collection, repairs and licence compliance.
