bedroom HMO becoming 7 flats, do we need to count as a loss in the
amount of dwellings? The HMO pre-dates the change to the HDT that
allows Communal Accommodation to be considered, so we never had the
'benefit' of the positive dwelling numbers. However the 17 room HMO
counts as 9.4 dwellings, and so the change to 7 flats will leave us
with a deficit. Do we just have to take this loss on the chin?</p>Former Member2020-07-20T15:03:30Z
