Episode 287 - HMO Licensing Costing You Thousands

In this week's episode of The Property Rebel: Arsh Ellahi breaks down a worrying trend affecting landlords across the UK — councils are now actively informing your mortgage lenders and insurance companies about your HMO applications, prohibition notices, and even minor compliance issues. Arsh shares real-life examples from his own portfolio, including how a simple licensing renewal triggered automatic notifications to lenders, and how an incorrect prohibition order almost led to uncomfortable conversations with the bank.

He explains how councils are increasingly using enforcement, licensing requirements, and minor technicalities to generate revenue — and how this could put unprepared investors at serious risk. From wrong mortgage products to insufficient insurance cover, Arsh reveals the pitfalls many landlords fall into without realising it. If you own HMOs or plan to buy one, this episode is essential listening to protect your portfolio and avoid costly surprises.
