The government is planning to eliminate the requirement for multiple council tax bills on HMO properties. This means that tenants living in HMOs will no longer be taxed on their individual bedrooms, aligning with the original principles of council tax. Earlier this year, the government launched a consultation on reforming council tax for HMOs due to concerns raised by landlords and tenants. The current policy of taxing individual bedrooms has significantly increased council tax for HMOs, making it financially unviable for many.
