Design, Build & Manage HMOs

Most HMO problems are baked in at the design stage. Poor layouts, bad room sizes, awkward services, and compliance issues that cost serious money later.

Our Design, Build & Manage HMO service removes that risk by handling the entire process end to end. One team. One strategy. One accountable operator.

We design HMOs that work, build them properly, and then manage them for long-term performance.

Design With Purpose

Good HMO design is not about squeezing beds in. It is about flow, compliance, and durability.

We design around:

  • Licensing and local authority requirements
  • Optimal room sizes and layouts
  • Ensuite feasibility and services routing
  • Fire safety and management practicality

Every design decision is made with management and cash flow in mind.

Build Done Properly

HMO refurbishments are unforgiving. Cut corners and you pay for it every year after.

We oversee the full build process:

  • Scope of works and cost control
  • Contractor management and site inspections
  • Building control and compliance sign-off
  • Quality checks before handover

This is not cosmetic refurb work. It is operational construction.

Managed for Performance

Once complete, we manage the HMO as part of our wider portfolio. That feedback loop is critical.

Because we manage HMOs daily, we know:

  • What lasts
  • What fails
  • What tenants abuse
  • What councils inspect

That knowledge feeds back into how we design and build.

Why This Matters

Separating sourcing, design, build, and management creates gaps. Gaps create blame, delays, and cost overruns.

By keeping everything under one roof, we deliver:

  • Fewer mistakes
  • Faster delivery
  • Better long-term returns

We take responsibility from concept to cash flow.

Who This Service Is For

  • Investors converting properties into HMOs
  • Landlords who want turnkey delivery without headaches
  • Portfolio owners scaling beyond single lets

If you want pretty drawings, hire an architect.

If you want a HMO that performs, this is the difference.
