Void and turnaround refurbishment in Ludlow: common questions

Can you work on a house I haven't bought yet in Ludlow?

Yes. We can survey before you buy and tell you the likely room count, the planning and licensing position and a guide cost, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

Can you convert part of a building above a shop in Ludlow?

Often, yes. Flats above shops need extra attention to fire separation from the commercial unit, and we assess this at survey stage.

Do I need planning permission to convert a house to an HMO in Ludlow?

It depends on the number of occupants and whether Shropshire Council has an Article 4 direction covering the address. Seven or more occupants always needs planning permission. We check the position for your street before quoting.

Does a converted HMO in Ludlow need a licence?

Yes if five or more people from two or more households will live there, because mandatory licensing applies in every council in England. Shropshire Council may also license smaller HMOs, which we check for the address.
