Specialist guidance for HMO property owners in London from Fraser Bond, providing compliance-led management, lettings, and strategic advisory to protect multi-occupancy assets and maximise rental returns.
Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) are a key segment of the London rental market, offering property owners attractive yields in high-demand areas. However, operating HMOs requires careful management, licensing compliance, and professional oversight to ensure tenant safety and long-term asset protection.
Fraser Bond provides HMO property owners London-wide with integrated property management, compliance monitoring, lettings services, and investment advisory, helping landlords achieve sustainable income and regulatory alignment.
