Get the licensing answer. Get on with the valuation.
Check property licensing and Article 4 requirements for any residential property in England and Wales, without searching council websites, scheme maps or planning documents.
One search. Licensing and Article 4. England and Wales.
A licence check should not take half a morning
Finding the right answer can mean searching council websites, reading scheme maps and comparing licensing rules, property by property. Across a busy valuation team that is hours spent on research rather than on valuing.
Council by council research
Every local authority publishes its licensing information differently, so even a simple check takes longer than it should.
Boundaries are not obvious
Scheme boundaries can run street by street. A postcode is not enough to tell you whether a property falls inside a designation.
The answer affects the valuation
Licensing and Article 4 requirements bear on a property's use, its risk and its investment case. Surveyors need an answer they can stand behind.
From address to answer
Enter a property address and Kamma does the research, giving your team the licensing and Article 4 position without going to the council sources themselves.
Licensing determination
See whether the property needs a mandatory HMO, additional or selective licence.
Article 4
See the Article 4 position for the property alongside its licensing, rather than searching council maps and planning documents separately.
Boundary accurate
Properties are checked against the scheme boundary itself rather than a postcode level assumption.
England and Wales
One consistent process across councils, so a valuation in one authority is checked the same way as the next.
