If tenants are constantly using bedrooms instead of shared spaces, ask yourself why.

Is the shared space:
• Too small?
• Poorly lit?
• Awkwardly arranged?

Design influences behaviour more than we like to admit.

One of the biggest mistakes in my free guide?

Quick design tip for HMOs:

If you own an HMO (or serviced accommodation) and you’ve ever thought,
“Something feels off here… but I can’t quite put my finger on it” — then this might be for you.

The things that quietly affect rent, retention and long-term performance.
