Council Claims Knowledge of HMO Conditions Without Inspections

A council has stated it can determine the conditions of Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) without carrying out physical inspections, according to Landlord Today.

The report notes that the council is even predicting these conditions down to a tenth of a per cent. No further details about the methods or implications for letting agents and inventory clerks are provided in the source.
