Selective licensing
Hounslow does not run a selective licensing scheme, so single-household lets do not need a licence.

Hounslow's borough-wide additional licensing scheme was renewed from 11 December 2025 for five years. It covers HMOs of three or more people from two or more households, plus some converted blocks of flats.
HMO planning
A borough-wide Article 4 direction has been in force since 4 September 2023 (excluding some business and industrial land), so converting a house to a small HMO needs planning permission.

What property management in Chiswick includes

Full management means one firm carries the whole tenancy for your Chiswick property, from the first photograph to the final inspection, and one point of contact answers to you.

Marketing and lettings

Professional photos, a launch price built from live local evidence, accompanied viewings, and applicants from corporate relationships as well as the property portals.

Vetting and paperwork

Full referencing, credit and right to rent checks, a tenancy agreement drafted for the Renters' Rights Act era, and the deposit protected on time.

Rent collection

Rent collected on schedule, with arrears followed up from the first day, so a late payment stays a rarity rather than becoming a habit.

Maintenance and repairs

Vetted local trades and agreed spending limits, so repairs are handled quickly and nothing is spent outside the framework you set.

Inspections and statements

Quarterly inspections reported in writing with photos, and a clear monthly statement, so you always know the state of the property.

Renewals and advice

Renewals priced against real market evidence, and honest advice on each property: improve it, hold it, or change its strategy.

Managing a rental in Chiswick: the local picture

Chiswick lets to established professional London. Media, corporate and finance households, staff from Chiswick Business Park and the Hammersmith office cluster, medical teams, and international arrivals placed by employers all look here, and the District line at Turnham Green and Chiswick Park, plus rail to Waterloo, keeps the commute simple. Families tend to take the houses, while couples and single professionals favour the flats. It is a tenant base that knows exactly what a good rental looks like.

That changes the management brief. Arrears are uncommon and tenancies often run for years, but the standard expected is high and visible. Tenants notice a scuffed hallway, a slow response to a dripping tap or a dated kitchen, and they compare the property with others on the same street. We present homes carefully, set the asking rent from local evidence rather than optimism, and handle repairs promptly, so that renewal becomes the natural choice.

Over time, the rewards in W4 come from protecting quality. A property kept in good order attracts the same calibre of tenant each time it comes to market, and it comes back cared for at the end of each tenancy. We plan larger work, such as redecoration or kitchen updates, for the gap between tenancies, so the house or flat holds its place near the top of the local market.

The Chiswick properties we manage

  • Family housesLarger homes in areas such as Bedford Park and Grove Park draw households who stay. We look after heating, gardens and decoration on a planned cycle so the house is ready for each renewal.
  • Flats for couples and professionalsClose to Turnham Green and the high road. We keep them immaculate between tenancies and answer repair requests quickly, because this audience expects it.
  • Homes for relocating employeesChiswick is a familiar choice for international arrivals placed by employers. We prepare the property for a smooth move-in and keep the tenant, and their employer where relevant, well informed.

Licensing and compliance in Chiswick

Chiswick is in the borough covered by Hounslow Council, and the licensing picture is simpler than in some neighbouring boroughs. Hounslow does not run selective licensing, so a house or flat let to a single household does not need a licence. Shared houses are different. A borough-wide additional licensing scheme, renewed from 11 December 2025 for five years, covers HMOs of three or more people from two or more households, and also reaches some converted blocks of flats.

Planning adds a further check for anyone considering sharers. A borough-wide Article 4 direction has applied since 4 September 2023, excluding some business and industrial land, so converting a house into a small HMO requires planning permission. Before taking on a Chiswick property, we confirm whether the building or flat falls within the additional scheme, apply for a licence where one is needed, and track its conditions and renewal dates alongside every safety certificate.

Who we manage for in Chiswick

In Chiswick we manage for owners who expect their property to be looked after as carefully as they would look after it themselves: professionals posted abroad, families who have moved out of London, and long-term investors. They receive monthly statements, photographed quarterly inspection reports and a single contact who knows the home and its tenants.

Why Chiswick landlords choose Morgan Prescott

Chiswick connects naturally with Hammersmith and Acton, both areas we manage, so our local knowledge carries across the boundaries tenants move between. Landlords also value our corporate tenant relationships, which suit the relocating professionals W4 attracts, and our compliance systems for the Renters' Rights Act 2026.

Other ways we can help in Chiswick

Chiswick property management questions, answered

Do you cover the whole of Chiswick?
Yes. We manage throughout W4, including the grid between the high road and the river, Turnham Green, Bedford Park, Grove Park and Strand on the Green. Hammersmith and Acton are covered through their own dedicated pages.
Does my Chiswick rental need a licence?
A single-household let does not, because Hounslow has no selective licensing. Most shared houses with three or more people from two or more households need an additional licence, and some converted blocks of flats are also covered. We check the specific property for you.
Can you take over from my current letting agent in Chiswick?
Yes. We deal with your existing agent, collect the deposit, certificates, keys and tenancy file, review compliance, and contact the tenant. The tenancy carries on as before, with us as the managing agent.
Do you manage HMOs in Chiswick?
We can, although most Chiswick property suits families and professionals. An HMO needs an additional licence from Hounslow, and the borough-wide Article 4 direction means a new small HMO needs planning permission. For an existing licensed HMO, we manage the licence conditions and safety checks.
Can you find tenants relocating to London with their employer?
Yes. Chiswick is a familiar choice for international arrivals placed by employers, and our corporate tenant relationships help us reach them. We present the property for that audience and agree the tenancy terms with the tenant or the company involved.
How do you keep a Chiswick home at the standard tenants expect?
Through quarterly inspections with photos, fast action on reported repairs and planned refresh work between tenancies. Tenants here expect a well-kept home, and keeping it that way protects both the rent and the property's long-term value.
