The Government does seem to be making it as difficult as possible for those seeking to rent out residential properties. The latest hurdle are the new rules governing houses in multiple occupation (HMO) which came into force on 1 October 2019. These rules affect any property which is occupied by five or more people, forming two or more separate households. The landlord must obtain a licence from the local authority which will include meeting the rules regarding minimum bedroom sizes.
