Having to be married to form a single household...

The Housing Act definition of an HMO have not changed.... The relevant bits under discussion in this thread have been the same since the Housing Act 2004 came into force in January 2005.



It's not. HMO if more than one household, exception if "only occupied by two persons".

The https://www.gov.uk/house-in-multiple-occupation-licence site says 'at least 3 people' - which definition are you using?

I was quoting from the Housing Act 2004.

And "a house in multiple occupation is a property rented out by at least 3 people" mean the same as "it's not a HMO if the property is only occupied by two persons".
