Does Tenarize track HMO and selective licensing?

Operating an unlicensed HMO where a licence is required is a criminal offence, so licensing is tracked as real data rather than a file you might forget to look at.

• Licence type, reference and expiry date are structured fields on the property.
• Status pills appear on the property page and portfolio-wide badges on the property list, so a missing or expiring licence is visible without opening anything.
• The licence's occupancy limit is a structured field of its own, and it's enforced: a new tenancy that would take the property over the permitted number of people is refused. It counts people rather than rooms, because that's what a licence caps.
• A licence conditions free-text field records everything else the licensing authority attached — fire door requirements, minimum room sizes, amenity standards — which the licence's existence and expiry alone never capture. It's shown prominently on the licensing card, not buried.
• Approaching expiry and outright absence both generate notifications.
• If you let a property by room but haven't ticked the licensing box, Tenarize raises a prompt anyway once the tenancies you've recorded reach three or more people in separate households — the point at which it's an HMO in law, and the case where silence is most expensive. At five people it says so more firmly, because that's where mandatory licensing starts. The prompt counts people, not bedrooms: an empty five-bedroom house isn't an HMO yet, and Tenarize won't tell you it is.

Worth knowing: Whether a property needs a licence depends on your local authority's own scheme. Tenarize prompts you to check, and tracks what you tell it; it doesn't look up your council's designation for you.
