MSurveying was crucial in converting a retail unit into two one-bedroom flats and transforming the flat above into a five-bedroom HMO, including a loft conversion. Utilizing Class MA to its full potential, we removed the commercial unit entirely to create the ground floor flats. Recognising that rental demand for two-bed flats in the area was weak, we opted for a five-bedroom HMO for the upper floors. Understanding the need for full planning in certain areas, we strategically handled these aspects, such as adding a dormer for the HMO, which required full planning rather than permitted development. Additionally, we reconfigured the entrance to the upper floors, necessitating another full planning application due to the external changes. This meticulous planning and execution were facilitated from our first site visit by collaborating closely with our architect and planning consultant, ensuring a comprehensive approach to the project’s success.

“MSurveying was instrumental in our commercial to residential conversion project. They expertly managed the transition from a retail unit to two one-bedroom flats and a five-bedroom HMO, including handling all necessary planning applications and design adjustments.”

MSurveying played a crucial role in the conversion of a commercial property near a Crossrail station into residential units, transforming an existing retail unit into a one-bedroom flat and a house into a six-bedroom HMO with rear and loft conversions. From the early stages, we assisted the design team to optimise the HMO layout, ensuring effective space utilisation and regulatory compliance. We tendered for all contractors, ensuring top-quality selections, and managed building control and build warranty inspections to uphold high standards. MSurveying also prepared detailed work schedule reports for bank valuations and successfully secured the HMO license on behalf of the client, ensuring all regulatory requirements were met. Our comprehensive involvement ensured the project’s smooth execution and successful completion.

“MSurveying made our property conversion seamless, managing everything from design to licensing with professionalism and expertise. Highly recommended!”
