HMO Exit Planning
Where expertise drives opportunity
Whether you're preparing to sell in the next 6-18 months or simply keeping one eye on the market, our specialist HMO Exit Planning service is designed to maximise your future exit value and minimise stress.
With rising energy costs, evolving regulations, and increasing buyer scrutiny, HMOs today are judged less on tenancies and more on net yield, compliance, and future-proofing. A prepared and optimised HMO sells faster, at a higher price, and with more certainty.
We give you the strategic advice and support to get there.


Why It Matters Now
Over the past few years, the HMO landscape has shifted significantly. From the impact of EPC changes and the Renters’ Reform Bill, to tighter lending criteria and rising operational costs, the game has changed—and not every landlord is adapting fast enough.
Buyers today are seeking:
-
Predictable cash flow
-
Strong tenant harmony
-
Professional management
-
A healthy, sustainable net return
And lenders are more cautious than ever.
Without a clear exit strategy, landlords risk being caught out by changing conditions or leaving value on the table.

What We Do
Our Exit Planning service assesses your HMO(s) in detail across 13 key areas:
Current income
Occupancy & income potential
Management quality
Rental levels & sustainability
OPEX, energy & maintenance overheads
Current value & market saleability
Potential uplift from improvements
Compliance & future-proofing (room sizes, licensing)
EPC rating & energy efficiency planning
Exit timing based on your personal goals & financial position
External pressures (interest rates, energy tariffs, RRB)
Advice on preparing for competition in the market
Green energy & long-term value optimisation
Every HMO is different. Our role is to highlight risk, unlock opportunity, and help you plan the best outcome for you—not just the best price
