If I - hopefully not - end up on the market again it would be me living on the ground floor. And, I'd be fine with that.

Maybe the ground floor could become George and Mildred Roper's living space if it was like this.

RHemmings said:Is it still an HMO if the owner lives in it and rents out rooms? I wasn't thinking that it would be two dwellings, but a single dwelling with rooms rented out. But, of course, if the law classes that as an HMO, it is.
It is possible for a resident landlord to create a HMO with lodgers. In England (and possibly Wales) ,if the resident landlord had 3 (unrelated) lodgers that would create a HMO and if the resident landlord had 4 (unrelated) lodgers living as two separate households, excluding the landlord's own household, then it would be a licensable HMO. Should the property be in a council area with selective licensing then it's possible for a resident landlord to create a licensable HMO with fewer lodgers.
