Not just for HMOs, but all residential letting properties, this being part of the Housing Act 2004, intended to cover anti-social behaviour issues, however appears to me to be more data and revenue collecting.

I have just registered several three bed properties and flats in Bristol, was £450 per property, now after 1st July £1000 per property.

Owner, landlord, manager, agents etc. need to be registered, with checks carried out on the same by local council’s environmental health office, full description of property, tenants, layout of property, production of EPC, Gas Safety Certificate, Electrical Inspection Report etc. On the anti-social behaviour issue, landlord and/or agent is expected to leave their contact details with neighbouring property owners to the rental property.

All properties in the area that the scheme covers.... so far at least.

So I've registered, that's £33.50 down the drain.

Just need to get my licence, oh yeah that's another £144 and I will need to pay to go on a training course.
