The problem
Property licensing applications are a drain on your team's time.

Non-compliance risk and fines
Missing a required licence can lead to significant fines and reputational damage.
Rejection risk
Missing information or incorrect documents can delay or reject an application.
Hours of admin time
Every application means chasing documents, submitting paperwork and tracking progress.

Common questions
Questions letting agents ask about Kamma Applications
Once your invoice is settled and we have all the required documents, we typically submit to the council within 24-48 working hours. Council processing times vary and are outside our control, but we monitor the application and respond to any queries throughout.
Our 100% first-time approval rate reflects the care we put into every submission. If a council rejects an application for reasons within our control, we resubmit at no additional charge. We keep you informed throughout.
We handle Selective, Additional, and Mandatory/Discretionary HMO licences UK-wide. You'll need to confirm which licence type applies to the property before instructing us.
No. Our applications service is a standalone service, so you don't need a Kamma Suite or Quick Check subscription. That said, many of our applications customers find Kamma Suite useful for keeping the rest of their portfolio compliant after a licence is in place.
The council fee is paid by Kamma on the landlord's behalf as part of the service. Council fees vary by council and licence type, and the exact amount will be confirmed before submission. It is collected as part of the application process.
If you're managing a large number of applications, we can provide discounted pricing and a tailored service to suit your portfolio. Speak to our team to discuss your requirements.
