Terracotta Property Whitepaper: unlock the future of HMOs

Are HMOs The Answer To The UK Housing Crisis?

Terracotta has produced a whitepaper that seeks to navigate the regulatory landscape and understand some of the key risks that impact the sector.

The House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) market in the UK has been experiencing notable shifts, driven by recent economic changes and evolving house needs. With rising interest rates and increasing financial pressures, many landlords are pivoting from traditional Buy-to-Let (BTL) models to HMO investments. This transition is largely motivated by the potential for higher returns that HMOs offer compared to standard rental properties.

 Recent data indicates that the number of licensed HMOs has increased over past year, reflecting the sector's growth and the regulatory push towards higher standards.

 Looking ahead, the HMO market is expected to continue its growth trajectory. The sector's resilience in providing affordable and flexible housing solutions will likely sustain investor interest and tenant demand. However, prospective investors should be mindful of ongoing regulatory changes and market dynamics that may impact HMO operations and profitability.
