Licensing support, start to finish
Yuno handles the full licensing process: identifying which licences a property or portfolio needs, submitting the application, and monitoring it afterwards, backed by CIEH-accredited Environmental Health Officers, not guesswork.
Why licensing needs active management
Licensing requirements vary by council, by property type, and by occupancy, and they change over time. They can also overlap with planning requirements, so a property can need both a licence and planning permission before it's genuinely compliant. Missing a requirement or a renewal date carries real enforcement and financial risk, which is why licensing needs to be actively managed, not left to chance.

Licensing and planning often overlap
A property can need both a licence and planning permission. For example, an Article 4 Direction can mean a change to HMO use needs full planning permission before a licence is even relevant. Yuno checks both.
