Statistics from previous property licensing schemes
Using legislation from the Housing Act 2004, we issue property licensing schemes for some private rented properties in Bristol.
These licensing schemes can be introduced to specific areas of the city where evidence suggests there are poor housing conditions and/or poor management practises.
On 6 August 2024 we launched our fifth local scheme. This adds to the current national mandatory licensing schemes for larger Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs).
We'll update this page with the scheme outcomes when each one is completed.
