#HMOs — here's what you need to know. 👇
Thinking about investing in an HMO (House in Multiple Occupation)? 🤔 Here's what you need to know. 👇 An HMO is when three or more tenants live in a property and share bathroom or kitchen facilities. While they are not new, they have become increasingly popular over the last year. Key benefits of an HMO over a single-unit property can be... 🌱 Higher yields: Average yields for HMOs are around 7.5%, compared to 3.6% for single-let properties.* ♻ Greater turnover: With multiple tenants, landlords can raise rents at different times throughout the year. 📈 High demand and limited supply: There is a great demand for flexible and affordable accommodation options. 💸 Cost efficiencies: Increased rental income can help offset maintenance and tenant relation expenses. Landlords can also charge higher rent for furnished HMO rooms, and shared utilities can lead to significant cost savings. However, there are a few important things you need to be aware of … ✨ Specialised financing: HMO mortgages can offer favourable terms for landlords with higher rental income potential compared to standard buy-to-let mortgages but it’s really important to understand the basis upon which the lender will instruct a valuation. 👮♀️ Regulatory compliance: HMOs require specific licences and must adhere to local regulations, including minimum room sizes and notifying councils about new HMOs. 📍 Property suitability: Research location, size, and demand in your area to ensure a strong return on your HMO investment.

Why build one house when you can build two? 👷🏘️ Our Development Finance team helped an established developer maximise the potential of their site by building two semi-detached houses where they had planning approved for one. The change meant the developer needed additional funding support until the necessary planning was secured and construction could begin. Speaking to their Relationship Director, Stewart Budge, our Planning Assistance Loan supported them to bridge the funding gap while the planning for the expanded project was reviewed. The two houses are due to be ready by the end of the summer 🏁 Read more about this case study > https://bit.ly/3Zco0oT Or find out more about our Planning Assistance Loan > https://bit.ly/474lC5n #DevelopmentFinance #Developers #RealEstateDevelopment #PropertyInvestment #HousingMarket #ConstructionFinance #DevelopmentSuccess
