One of three tenants is leaving a student HMO?
Hi Everyone, My daughter is at university and sharing a 3-bedroom HMO with two other tenants, and one is moving out.
The remaining two tenants are happy to take over the tenancy and replace the leaving tenant’s share of the deposit. However, they have been told there are rules around HMOs if fewer than three people occupy the tenancy address.
Can they leave the other tenant’s name on the tenancy if she leaves and just make up her share of rent bills as she is moving back into university halls?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Emma
