Looking for HMO Mortgage in Nottingham? Then look no further.
We have whole of the market access allowing us to find our customers the best possible deal.
Nottingham's large student population and comparatively low property prices make it a dependable yield market for landlords, particularly around Lenton, Dunkirk and the wider university-adjacent areas. HMO lending in Nottingham requires a lender who understands local licensing requirements and the specific demand drivers behind the city's shared housing market.
At Raise the Bridge, we specialise in HMO mortgages across Nottingham and the surrounding area, so we understand exactly what's needed to get a mortgage application for a licensed HMO property approved.
Nottingham has an Article 4 Direction affecting HMOs.
Nottingham City Council introduced a city-wide Article 4 Direction in 2012, meaning a planning application is required anywhere in the city to convert a family home (Use Class C3) into a small HMO for 3–6 people (Use Class C4). The council states such conversions are highly unlikely to be granted permission. Separately, an HMO for 7 or more people always needs planning permission, Article 4 or not. Some areas, particularly conservation areas, are subject to additional Article 4 restrictions on other works.
Planning and licensing rules can change, and exact area boundaries matter — always confirm the current position for a specific property before relying on it.

HMO stands for House in Multiple Occupation — a property let to several tenants from more than one household who share facilities such as the kitchen or bathroom.
Lenders need more information about the property and usually require it to be fully licensed with the local council, which most standard buy-to-let lenders aren't set up to assess.
Licensing requirements vary by council and by how many people the property is let to — we can talk through what applies to your property before you apply.
You'll speak to an HMO mortgage adviser, complete a short application, and we submit it to our panel of UK lenders to find the most competitive rate for your property.
HMO mortgages arranged for investment purposes are typically unregulated. Raise Commercial Ltd is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. We arrange unregulated commercial and investment property finance only.
