Typical jobs for Worcester landlords
Worcester has a large student market around St John's and the city centre, often in shared houses. Larger shared houses may need an HMO licence from Worcester City Council as well as the usual gas, electrical and EPC documents, so check the council's rules before you let by the room.
Victorian terraces near the river and Barbourne frequently have older consumer units. If an EICR finds C1 or C2 faults, the remedial work must be done within 28 days, and we can put you in touch with the electrician who carried out the inspection.
