From HMOs I have seen, landlords do not believe that a tenant should have any possessions, they convert every room they can into bedrooms and put in beds that fill the entire space. There is no room to store any items other than a few clothes.

They also ring down property values of other houses in the area, depending on who the tenants are.

Great Video, I didn’t know that the Kitchen must be within one floor of a three floor house, I live in a HMO on the first floor of a three floor house and the kitchen is located on the rear ground, the people on the second floor tend not to use the kitchen due to the distance, am not sure if the rule applies to London as well? or it’s just a new rule just come out, is there a website with this rule please you could share thanks

If you've taken out a BTL mortgage and then decide to convert to HMO, wouldn't your lender need to know this? Does your mortgage not change from BTL to HMO Mortgage if this happens? I really think this is a grey area as I couldn't find much information about this.

Nice informative video. How is the property funded. I know he mentioned some partners but is it also funded via a bridge?

Thanks Matt. From memory I think Oli and his partners have funded cash from proceeds of other properties they’ve sold recently.

Hi Justin Thanks for videos they are very good. Without trying to sound like an old fart…have you had anyone else suggesting you tone down the volume of your music that keeps cutting in. Your voices are so quiet and then music cutting in loud all the time. We don’t need music like that all the time looking at your very interesting to watch videos Good work, stay well

Do you not believe that HMOs help to destroy the fabric of a local community? They are usually grief holes for single or divorced men. Usually men with serious addiction problems end up in these buildings. There may be some working professionals who live in HMOs but they flee them at the first available opportunity. My local community has been destroyed by speculators & developers such as yourself as you help to price local people out of the market. Houses should be as affordable as possible rather than profit maximizing tools.

Thanks for the feedback Mark, and I am always interested to hear other peoples views on property investing. Unfortunately I don't think property investors can be criticised for wanting to create a better financial future for themself or their families. It is my belief that people should focus on what they can control in life - those unhappy with their personal circumstances should put more focus into changing and controlling that, instead of seeking to shame other people for making sensible investment decisions.

@@JustinWilkins I'm not trying to shame anyone & I'm happy with my personal circumstances thanks very much. The question was do you not believe HMOs help to destroy the fabric of local communities? Do you believe they should be banned or at the very least extremely well regulated & managed? Do you believe the government needs to majorly invest in social housing again so people do not have to pay over & above the mortgages of others? Not trying to start an argument these are genuine questions.

@@markfeely4215 yes, I agree with you Mark ... note Justin did not actually answer the question posed. However, I do believe Justin himself only does family lets - which I believe are better for the community and environment. Six people living in one house creates an awful lot of refuse, and parking problems if they have vehicles ... 🙄🙄

I don't think it is bad it should be regulated yes but it also helps a lot of people especially in a crisis if I didn't have family to live with and a good salary I would 100% live in an HMO to save up for a deposit. I think people complain too much in this country instead of just finding a solution to their problems

I'm in the North East and up until a few years ago alot of HMOs were really poor quality round here, often to many on one street along with conversations to flats, really nice victorian properties just abused. However alot of investors have taken them over and renovated to a really good standard with en-suites etc and I know people who have left rented house to move in them and love it. Easy life for them, no bills to worry about and only a month tie in. I think these better quality HMOs do serve a good purpose and can benefit an area.
