Ask 165: Should I get help with this auction purchase? PLUS: What’s happening with HMO regulations?

Welcome to another week of Ask Rob & Rob - this time with two new questions from Mark and Ben...
The first question this week is from Mark. Several properties have caught his interest and Mark has attempted to review the legal pack himself. However some are more complicated than he thought!
Would Rob and Rob recommend seeking professional legal advice prior to purchasing at auction? Do Rob & Rob know of any specialist firms to recommend to Mark to help with purchases and provide due diligence?
Find out in this week’s episode.
Next up we have Ben who’s asking the question on behalf of his Dad who runs a couple of student buy-to-let properties in Surrey.
Ben wants to dispel the myths about the house of multiple occupancy (HMO) rules and asks Rob and Rob for the facts!
