HMO Planning

HMO Planning Services for Property Conversions

Converting a property into a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) requires careful planning and a clear understanding of local council regulations. These properties typically feature separate bedrooms with shared facilities such as bathrooms and kitchens, making compliance with planning permission, planning, and permitted development rules essential.

At AA Drafting Solutions, our HMO planning services provide expert guidance, including accurate planning drawings for your project and complete planning application support for council approval. With our knowledge and contacts across London boroughs, we help ensure your HMO project meets all regulatory requirements efficiently.

When executed correctly, HMO conversions can deliver significant investment potential and strong returns. Our extensive experience in securing HMO planning approvals means we can take the hassle out of the process, guiding you from initial feasibility and design to full planning application submission. If you own a large property suitable for an HMO, AA Drafting Solutions can help you explore design options, maximise space, and achieve successful planning outcomes.

USE CLASSES

Change of Use Application

The Town and Country Planning Order puts uses of land and buildings into various categories known as ‘Use Classes’ including houses. If you intend to use a building or a house for any new purpose you may require a ‘change of use’ permission from the local authority. This also falls under existing use applications in which if the property has been acting under a certain use class for over 4 years AA Drafting Solutions can apply for the property to be permanently assigned to that use class.
