Running a house in multiple occupation means juggling several tenancies under one roof — different tenants, rents, deposits and move-in dates, plus HMO licence and safety deadlines that carry real penalties. Lettfolio is built for exactly that: manage each room individually, then see the whole building at a glance.
Everything an HMO landlord needs
A tenancy per room
Give every room its own rent, deposit, tenant and let-or-void status — no more squeezing a five-bed HMO into a single "property" record.
Live building rent roll
See total rent, occupancy and which rooms are void across the whole building in one view, so you always know where the income stands.
Void-room tracking
Empty rooms are flagged clearly, so you can chase re-lets before they quietly eat into the building's monthly income.
HMO licence & safety reminders
Track HMO licence renewals, gas safety, EICR and EPC deadlines per property with early warnings — the certificates that carry the biggest fines if they lapse.
Rooms or self-contained flats
Split a house into rooms or a block into self-contained flats — both are supported, each with its own rent and tenant.
Maintenance & documents
Log repairs against the room or the building, store certificates and tenancy paperwork, and keep a clear record for each address.

Frequently asked questions
Does Lettfolio manage HMOs room by room?
Yes. Split a property into rooms, each with its own rent, deposit, tenant and let-or-void status, and see the whole building's rent roll and occupancy at a glance. Self-contained flats within a block are supported the same way.
Can Lettfolio track HMO licences and safety certificates?
Yes. HMO licence renewals, gas safety, EICR and EPC deadlines are tracked per property with early-warning reminders, so a renewal never sneaks up on you.
Which plan do I need to manage HMOs?
Room-by-room HMO management is available on every plan, including Free for a single property. Paid plans simply add more properties as your portfolio grows — see pricing.
