Course description

A house in multiple occupation (HMO) is a property with multiple tenants who do not form one single family or household. Investments in HMO can be very profitable with high returns on investment, but the management of HMO is far stricter for the landlord and anyone managing the property. The introduction of civil penalties and Rent Repayment Orders significantly increased financial penalties that local authorities can apply to landlords and managers who do not meet their obligations. It is vitally important that both landlords and managers are aware of the legal responsibilities they have.
