Customer success story
In early 2023, Coventry City Council became one of the first local authorities to adopt our HMO Discovery solution and began investigating candidate properties which our unique scorecard identified as being likely to be unlicensed HMOs.
The results
Coventry City Council has already realised a 10x return on investment through fines and collection of additional licensing revenue, from completing investigations into only just a small proportion of high priority cases to date, with a success rate of 95%. The HMO Discovery solution has also helped expose portfolios of multiple unlicensed properties owned by individual landlords, from single investigations.

How our unlicensed HMO discovery solution works
Our solution firstly identifies the Private Rental Sector (PRS) properties within any local authority's jurisdiction. It then uses a scorecard developed using a wide range of proprietary property assets – supported with inputs from data partners such as Equifax, Zoopla, Royal Mail & Land Registry – to rank each rental property for its likelihood to be HMO.
Step 1
Our HMO discovery solution identifies all Private Rental Sector (PRS) properties in any local authority's jurisdiction
Step 2
The properties are ranked on a complex scorecard including multiple factors (property size/type, transaction history, insurance, EPC, etc.)
Step 3
The HMO candidate list is cross-referenced with the local authority's existing licensing data
Step 4
The list of ranked HMO candidates is prioritised for investigation to expose unlicensed HMOs, recover lost revenue and ensure compliance
