Selective licensing in Bromsgrove District Council
⚠ UNVERIFIED
Search results did not surface a clear statement either confirming or ruling out a selective licensing scheme — one third-party page referenced 'selective and HMO licensing fees' without detail. Marked unknown rather than guessed; needs a direct check of the council's own landlord page. Confirm directly with Bromsgrove District Council before letting.
Additional licensing in Bromsgrove District Council
⚠ UNVERIFIED
Council's own HMO privacy-notice page confirms HMO licensing exists but doesn't specify mandatory-only vs. additional; not resolved from available search results. Confirm directly with Bromsgrove District Council before letting.
National obligations that apply everywhere in England

- Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) — Every rental property — a live legal requirement in England since 2020.
- Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) — Every rental property — currently rated E or above to be let legally.
- Tenancy deposit protection — Any deposit taken — must be protected in a government-approved scheme within 30 days.
- Right to Rent checks — Every tenant — landlords must verify immigration status before letting.
- PRS Landlord Database registration — Phasing in nationally 2026–2028 under the Renters' Rights Act — a new, separate requirement from council licensing.
