HMOs in Meir are licensed and regulated by Stoke-on-Trent City 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.

Checked October 2026 against Stoke-on-Trent City Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.

Stoke-on-Trent City Council has an Article 4 direction across its whole area, so turning a family house in Meir into a small HMO needs planning permission. This is an immediate direction that took effect on 23 October 2026 and lapses unless the council confirms it within six months. Before we take a house on, we check it has the planning status it needs. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Stoke-on-Trent City Council proposed a citywide additional licensing scheme in August 2026, subject to consultation, so smaller HMOs may need a licence in future.

How we handle HMO room letting work in Meir

We let HMO rooms in Meir 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 Meir 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 Meir ask us

Do you manage HMOs across Meir?

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

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.

Can you take over a house that already has tenants?

Yes. We review the tenancies, licence and certificates at handover and list anything that needs attention before we take on day-to-day management.

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.
