In general, evicting tenants in a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) is not necessarily harder than evicting standard tenants, but the process can be more complex due to additional regulations. For both HMO and standard tenancies, landlords can use an eviction notice section 21​ to regain possession of the property without providing a reason, as long as the fixed-term tenancy has ended. However, HMO properties often have stricter licensing and safety requirements. If a landlord fails to meet these, it could invalidate the Section 21 notice, making eviction more challenging. Additionally, HMO tenants may have stronger collective bargaining power, which can sometimes delay the process. Overall, while the legal grounds for eviction are similar, the practicalities of evicting HMO tenants can be more complicated.
