HMO Property
Management

We’re experts in HMO’s

At Tiili Agency, we have many years of experience in dealing with HMOs of all kinds in Norwich. We understand they present a unique set of challenges. Lucky for you, we have the expertise to handle all aspects of HMO management so you can sit back and relax safe in the knowledge your property is in good hands.

Our aim is always to make your life as a landlord easier. Which is why we offer a full start-to-finish product specifically designed for HMO landlords. For us, HMO Management doesn’t start when there are tenants in situ, it starts long before then.

What is an HMO?

Not sure whether your property counts as an HMO? A property is classed as a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) if both of the below apply:

At least three tenants are living there, forming more than one household
The tenants share a toilet, bathroom or kitchen facilities

You a large HMO, and slightly different rules apply if both:

At least 5 tenants forming more than one household live there

AND

The tenants share a toilet, bathroom or kitchen facilities

Large HMOs are required to meet certain criteria set out by the local council. You must also apply for a licence and provide certain information to the local council to get one.

If you manage your own HMO, it’s your responsibility to regularly inspect the property to make sure it continues meeting regulations, carrying out any repairs as necessary. However, if you use an HMO Manager, the responsibility lies with them. That’s where we come in.

The search for an HMO Manager ends here

Tiili Agency can support you whether you’re looking for an HMO property or have a portfolio full of them. We’ve got years of experience managing HMOs of all sizes so there’s very little we haven’t seen!

An area we’re particularly familiar with is student lets. Norwich is a hub of student life, with twenty thousand calling the city their home every year. They all need somewhere to stay during their uni years. Student lets can be a great way to maximise your return on investment, but it’s important to make sure they tick the right boxes for you and potential tenants.

Looking for an HMO?

If you’re looking for an HMO property in Norwich, we can help. We’ve created a step-by-step process to make the whole thing easier.

We start off by meeting with you to understand what type of property you’re looking for.
We then source potential properties so you can choose the right one for you.
If any adaptations need to be made, we can organise architectural drawings for prospective conversions.
Once these have been approved we then gather quotations for works from appropriate fully-qualified contractors.
Finally, we manage the contractors throughout the programme of work to ensure a high-quality finish.
As soon as the property is ready, the Tiili team then advertises the rooms to rent, qualifying each tenant to ensure they are exactly the right fit.

Whether you’re looking for young professionals or students, we’ll help you maximise your return on investment.
