Frequently asked questions
Practical answers for procurement, compliance, and delivery teams.
Do I need a specialist mortgage for an HMO?
Yes. Most high-street lenders won't finance properties with 5+ bedrooms or mandatory HMO licensing. Specialist lenders assess room-by-room rental income and require evidence of compliance — which Social Home automates.
How does Social Home help me get mortgage-ready?
Our platform generates compliance evidence packs, yield reports, and occupancy forecasts that lenders require during underwriting. Many brokers accept Social Home exports as supporting documentation.
What is guaranteed rent through an RSL?
Registered Social Landlords lease your property at a fixed monthly rent regardless of occupancy. Social Home connects landlords with vetted RSLs and manages the onboarding, compliance, and payments.
