In Worcestershire, as everywhere in England, a house with five or more people forming two or more households needs a mandatory HMO licence. Some councils go further with additional licensing or Article 4 directions, as the table shows.

Our work in Worcestershire ranges from single conversions for first-time landlords to multi-house programmes for investors, all priced in writing before work starts.

Our HMO room letting service in Worcestershire

We let HMO rooms in Worcestershire 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 Worcestershire 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.
