A fixed rent for your HMO, without the workload

HMOs can earn more than a single-household let, but they are the most demanding property type to run: more tenants, more turnover, more maintenance and the strictest licensing and safety rules in the private rented sector.

HMO guaranteed rent hands all of that to us. We take the property on a company let, fill and manage the rooms, keep it compliant, and pay you the same agreed figure every month, whether every room is full or not.

  • A fixed monthly rent, agreed in writing
  • Empty rooms and sharer turnover are our cost, not yours
  • Licensing, fire safety and compliance managed
  • Free annual gas safety certificate

HMO rules by council

Every HMO with five or more people from two or more households needs a mandatory licence. Beyond that, each council sets its own additional licensing and planning rules, and they change often. Here is where things stand across the councils we cover. Open your area for the detail.

HMO guaranteed rent questions, answered

What is HMO guaranteed rent?
Morgan Prescott takes on your HMO, or a larger house suited to sharers, on a company let and pays you a fixed rent every month, whether rooms are full or empty. We let and manage the rooms and handle day-to-day maintenance and compliance.
Which areas do you cover for HMO guaranteed rent?
45 areas across West, North and South London and Surrey, from Ealing, Hounslow and Uxbridge to Tottenham, Croydon, Kingston and Woking.
Do I need an HMO licence in London?
Any HMO with five or more people from two or more households needs a mandatory licence. Most London boroughs also run additional licensing for smaller HMOs, and many use Article 4 directions that require planning permission for new HMOs. The rules differ by council, so we check your exact address.
How much does HMO guaranteed rent pay?
It depends on the number and size of rooms, the property's condition and licensing, and the location. After a free appraisal we give you a fixed monthly figure in writing, usually within 24 hours.
Is HMO guaranteed rent the same as rent-to-rent?
Both involve a company renting your property and subletting it, but the protections depend entirely on the contract and the company. Look for rent paid when rooms are empty, clear repair and licensing responsibilities, a handback condition and redress scheme membership.
