Managing a House in Multiple Occupation can be highly profitable – but it’s also complex. Gallacom offers specialist HMO management and lettings services that take the hassle out of renting your HMO property. We handle everything from finding quality tenants for each room to ensuring full legal compliance so you can enjoy maximum rental income with minimal stress.
Our professional yet warm approach ensures that your tenants stay happy and your investment remains profitable. Whether you own a single HMO or a portfolio, our team is here to help you make the most of it with comprehensive HMO management tailored to you and your properties needs.
Owning an HMO presents unique challenges that extend far beyond standard buy-to-let management. With multiple tenants under one roof, you face extra responsibilities in areas like safety checks, tenant coordination, and property upkeep.
HMO legislation is also continually evolving and varies by local council. It’s essential to stay on top of HMO regulations covering fire safety, minimum room sizes, tenant welfare and more.
Many landlords discover that HMO management is a full-time job in itself. Tasks like fire safety checks, managing tenant turnover, and resolving housemate disputes can become overwhelming. Also, ever-changing legislation and compliance duties only add to the workload.
That’s why having a dedicated HMO specialist is so valuable – we take on these challenges for you. We make sure that your property meets all legal requirements and that your tenants are well cared for, allowing you to enjoy the higher yields that HMOs offer without the usual headaches.
We'll have a discussion to understand your needs and whether our HMO management service is right for you.
We'll send you our Terms of Business to review and sign. Once this is signed we can officially act as your agent.
We'll onboard your property into our systems via our streamlined onboarding process.
Sit back and enjoy our HMO management service which has been designed to make your property investment as passive as possible.
HMO management isn’t just a sideline for us – it’s a core focus. We’ve developed this service specifically for HMO landlords, meaning we understand exactly what challenges you face and how to solve them.
Our team has hands-on experience in converting and managing shared houses, so we know how to maximise rent and minimise voids. With Gallacom, you’re getting seasoned specialists who eat, sleep and breathe HMO management.
We take pride in the results we achieve for our clients. Gallacom currently manages HMO properties for over 130 landlords, with occupancy rates consistently above 95%. We know that an HMO only makes money when rooms are filled with reliable tenants, so we work proactively to keep your property fully occupied.
Thanks to our effective marketing and tenant vetting, landlords often see higher rental yields and steadier income with us at the helm. Our goal is to optimise your rental income while protecting your assets for the long term.
HMO regulations can be daunting, but when you partner with Gallacom, you can relax knowing every box is checked. We are meticulous about ensuring safety and compliance with all relevant laws and regulations. Our experts will ensure your HMO meets all fire safety standards, licensing conditions, and health & safety requirements at all times.
From installing the correct fire doors and smoke alarms to keeping up with annual certifications, we handle it. You’ll avoid the risk of penalties and have complete peace of mind that your property is being managed the right way. We also keep detailed records and reports for your property, so you’ll have documentation ready if the council ever inspects or if you need it for insurance. With Gallacom, your HMO is in safe, compliant hands.
Based in the North West, Gallacom serves landlords in Greater Manchester and Sheffield. We have in-depth local market knowledge – from knowing the room rents in different neighbourhoods to understanding each council’s HMO licensing nuances. This enables us to achieve optimal rent levels and facilitate smooth licensing approvals for our clients.
We are an ARLA Propertymark accredited agent and a member of The Property Ombudsman and Client Money Protection Scheme (CMP). In short, we’re fully certified and accountable, giving you an extra layer of trust and security.
Honesty and integrity are at the heart of our business. We believe in clear communication and no hidden surprises. Our HMO management fees are straightforward and provide excellent value for the level of service we deliver (see our fee schedule for full details).
We don’t cut corners – we treat your property as if it were our own and always act in your best interest. Our reputation is built on trust, and we are committed to maintaining that through every interaction. When you work with us, you gain a partner who genuinely cares about your success.
We know every landlord’s situation is different, so we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We offer a personalised service – we take the time to understand your goals and concerns. Whether you’re a first-time HMO owner feeling unsure about the rules or an experienced investor expanding your portfolio, we tailor our approach to give you precisely what you need.
You can be as involved or as hands-off as you want. Our mission is to make your property investment as passive and rewarding as possible. With our team on your side, you’ll never have to worry about the day-to-day grind of HMO management again.
I've worked with Ryan as a property manager and have also seen how he responds to our tenants. He is extremely diligent and a pleasure to work with and I can truly say that I trust him to manage our portfolio. He has always been responsive and we've also had great feedback from a tenant that we honestly struggled to manage ourselves.
I am grateful to have found Ryan. He was the Project Manager and builder for my latest refurb and I have no complaints (which is hard in this industry!!) I live 200+ miles away from the project but Ryan managed the project excellently with complete professionalism.
I’ve just finished a HMO conversion project with Gallacom and I could not recommend them highly enough. I was looking for a company to manage the whole project with great communication and complete transparency throughout which they delivered on and the quality of the final build is great too. I look forward to working with them again.
