A shared house in Ledbury has to work for the council, the people who live there and the owner's figures. We look at all three before we agree terms.
You get one point of contact, written terms agreed for each property and regular updates on rent, repairs and compliance.

Checked October 2026 against Herefordshire Council's HMO licensing page. Schemes change, so we confirm the position for your address before any work starts.
We couldn't confirm Herefordshire Council's Article 4 position from its own website, so we check it with the council for the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We couldn't confirm whether Herefordshire Council runs additional licensing, so we check with the council for the address.
Our turnkey HMO service in Ledbury
Our turnkey HMO projects in Ledbury run under one contract from purchase support to first tenants. Each starts with checks for the address, including the local council's licensing schemes, any Article 4 direction and its amenity standards, so the design reflects the rules that apply in Herefordshire.
Owners in Ledbury keep control of the purchase and finance decisions throughout, with a written summary and a decision point at the end of each stage. Build costs are quoted after a survey, and council fees for planning, licensing and building control are paid separately.
