Welsh landlords clobbered with new fees as HMO rules brought in

By RLA Welsh landlords will now have to pay for planning permission to convert properties into Houses of Multiple Occupation – without assurances that permission will be granted.
New rules coming into effect from the end of February will mean landlords will require planning permission to convert a house from use as a single household to a shared rental property of three to six unrelated people.
