What is a HMO?<\/h4><\/div>\n\n\n\n
HMO stands for House in Multiple Occupation. A HMO landlord is someone who owns and rents out a property that is occupied by three or more people who are not from the same household and share facilities like a kitchen or bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HMO landlords must follow specific regulations and licensing requirements to ensure the safety and welfare of their tenants. These regulations cover areas such as fire safety, hygiene, and the provision of adequate facilities. HMO landlords may also have additional responsibilities, such as providing communal areas for their tenants and ensuring that the property meets certain standards for energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
