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

Birmingham City Council has an Article 4 direction across its whole area, so turning a family house in Perry Barr into a small HMO needs planning permission. We check this before an offer is made, not after. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. Birmingham City Council also runs additional licensing across its whole area (until 4 June 2028), so smaller HMOs with three or four people from two or more households need a licence too.

Questions about turnkey HMO in Perry Barr

Do you charge for an HMO appraisal in Perry Barr?

Talk to us about the property first. We'll explain what an appraisal involves for that house before you commit to anything.

What rents do HMO rooms achieve in Perry Barr?

Room rents vary by street, standard and season, so we check current comparable lets for the property rather than quote a town-wide figure.

How do Article 4 directions affect HMO investment in Perry Barr?

Where an Article 4 direction applies, turning a family house into a small HMO needs planning permission, which can be refused. We check whether the address is affected before you rely on any figures.

Can you work with my own architect or lender?

Yes. We can work to another designer's drawings or provide the cost information a lender's surveyor asks for.
