Houses in multiple occupation (HMO)
HMOs are generally houses split into bedsits, shared houses such as student houses or divided into some self-contained flats.
Licensing is intended to make sure that landlords of HMO's are fit and proper people and that their premises are properly regulated.
We will refuse to grant a Houses in Multiple Occupation licence for a property, which does not meet the required conditions.
The Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO) licensing register lists all the properties in Eden, which have an HMO licence.
