The HMO licence application process involves detailed property assessments, documentation requirements, and compliance verification. Applications typically take 8-12 weeks to process and must be completed before letting properties.
Required documentation includes detailed floor plans, fire risk assessments, gas safety certificates, electrical installation condition reports, and evidence of adequate management arrangements.
The application process also involves property inspections to verify compliance with minimum room sizes, fire safety standards, and general property condition. Landlords must demonstrate ongoing compliance throughout the licence period.
