Perth HMO Licensing — What Your Council Requires

Perth has a modest HMO market driven by Perth College (UHI) and a workforce in tourism, retail, and the public sector. HMO licensing in Scotland is mandatory under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2006. Perth & Kinross Council administers HMO licensing for Perth and requires a fire risk assessment for all licence applications.

  • HMO licensing mandatory under Housing (Scotland) Act 2006 for all properties with 3+ unrelated occupants
  • Perth College UHI contributes student demand to the local rental market
  • Perth is a growing city in central Scotland with improving transport links to Edinburgh and Glasgow
  • Scottish Fire and Rescue Service works with Perth & Kinross Council on HMO fire safety
  • Fire safety governed by the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 — broadly similar duties to the RRO 2005 in England
