A Haringey landlord has been fined £5000 by the council’s Private Sector Housing Team for letting an unlicensed HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) in Boreham Road, N22.

The fine was issued after the landlord ignored repeated warnings from the council to obtain a license to continue letting the property. The landlord appealed the fine to the First-Tier Tribunal, which upheld the decision in a virtual hearing earlier this month.
