Is there a different agreement for a room in an HMO?

Yes — a room let uses a separate template that grants the room plus shared use of the common parts, rather than the whole property.

When a property's letting type is By room, Tenarize generates a different document, not a variant of the standard one. The grant clause is scoped to the room and the shared common parts, and the obligations around communal areas are written accordingly.

Everything else works the same way — optional clauses, addendum, landlord-then-tenant signing, and the same disclaimer.

Not legal advice

These answers describe how Tenarize works and summarise the law in England as the product implements it. They are not legal advice about your situation, and the law changes. For free independent help, Citizens Advice and Shelter both cover renting in England; for anything unusual or contested, take advice from a solicitor.

Tenarize does not currently support Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, whose tenancy regimes are different.
