The demand for Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) has steadily grown across the UK due to an increasing need for affordable and flexible housing solutions. Managing an HMO requires a unique approach, as properties with multiple tenants in shared spaces are subject to stricter regulations to ensure both safety and quality of living. HMO Horizon provides landlords with the resources, inspections, and support they need to maintain compliance, especially in terms of the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS).
The HHSRS is a vital part of managing HMO properties, as it sets out a framework for identifying and mitigating health and safety hazards within homes. Understanding how the HHSRS works and how HMO Horizon assists landlords with it can significantly reduce risks and improve tenant satisfaction.
