Ban family houses from being converted into Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMOs)

Introduce legislation to prevent property developers & private landlords from converting family homes into HMOs, especially ex-council homes. We think that there is already a dearth of family homes for low-income working families, & by converting them into HMOs, the situation is being made worse.

We feel that rents for ordinary families are sky high, so converting houses into HMOs can create very difficult situations. I call on the government to help hard working, low income people.
