Hackney — 1 active HMO-specific Article 4 direction on record; verify full portfolio with council.

Profile

Inner London, dense Victorian terraces and converted stock, mixed residential and commercial character.

1 HMO-related Article 4 direction in our records; council verification essential to map full restricted zones.

Deal angle

Article 4 footprint too thin in our data to call; direct council engagement mandatory before bridging or HMO strategy.
