Guests staying in an HMO

by IMPEX786110

Hi

This is my first time posting to this forum. I am a small residential landlord and have a 6 bed licensed HMO. All rooms are of course operated under separate tenancy agreements, and I use the standard NRLA AST Template with standard clauses and no additional ones. One of the clauses...

I have experienced this, a tenant takes a room for single occupancy, but the girlfriend/boyfriend ends up staying every night, so she/he becomes an occupier rather than a guest. Which puts you in contravention of your Licencing conditions for number of persons.

Good Afternoon ,

I rents an attic room in the HMO house.
I have a verbal contract which has been in force for several years.

After the first heat wave, when I felt terrible and could not function normally, I decided to buy "White Silver-E 9L Evaporative Portable...

HMOs take constant management and cajoling of the tenants. You think this is bad, wait till the cold weather comes and they keep turning up the thermostat.

The landlord is probably cutting every corner he can through a combination of ignorance and bloody mindedness. This was never going to end with the problem being solved and you living there happily. You should start looking for somewhere else to live....
