The HMO Roadmap

The HMO Roadmap operates as a comprehensive training platform and community for investors focused on Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs) within the United Kingdom. The firm, trading under Fourth Floor Media Limited with Company Registration Number 08562113, was established in 2020 by Andy Graham. Its core mission is to assist HMO property investors in initiating, expanding, and systematising their portfolios. The company aims to enhance the HMO industry and the broader Private Rented Sector (PRS) by delivering educational resources, expert insights, and a supportive network for its members.

The company provides a range of services designed to support HMO property investors at various stages of their journey. These offerings include comprehensive training courses, expert masterclasses, and an inspirational case study vault. Members gain access to an essential downloadable resource toolkit and a revolutionary HMO Deal Stacker Tool. The HMO Roadmap also facilitates 1-2-1 mentorship programmes with experienced professionals such as Andy Graham, Jake and Lucy, and Rebecca Alcock, tailored to individual investor goals.

Beyond direct training, the firm offers a suite of partner services, including HMO mortgage and finance solutions, HMO property insurance, design and architecture services, furniture packages, property photo and video services, virtual assistant support, property management software, landlord legal services, and broadband and Wi-Fi solutions. The foundation of The HMO Roadmap is rooted in the extensive experience of its founder, Andy Graham, whose property investment career commenced in 2009. Graham's journey began with the acquisition and conversion of his first property into a five-bedroom HMO. Over approximately 15 years, he developed multiple multi-million-pound HMO portfolios for himself and private investors.

He also co-founded and successfully exited a prominent UK HMO investment and management agency, overseeing thousands of tenants. Graham's ventures have extended beyond HMOs to include commercial-to-residential developments, one of which received the 'Deal Of The Year' award in 2023. His personal experience with the challenges faced by new investors led him to establish The HMO Roadmap as a central resource in 2020. The HMO Roadmap is committed to upholding high standards of integrity and responsibility within the property sector.

The company's mission is underpinned by principles of transparency, accessibility, diversity, flexibility, and ethical practice, striving to provide an unbiased learning experience. It advocates for responsible investing that not only generates returns but also contributes positively to communities and the housing market. The firm’s dedication to quality and its impact on the industry have been recognised; in 2024, The HMO Roadmap was honoured with the 'Best Content Provider' award and received a Highly Commended recognition for 'Best Mentor or Training Provider' at the HMO Awards 23/24. The company's platform is structured to guide members through the process of building a successful HMO property business.

It features a flagship "HMO Roadmap" course with over 60 lessons, alongside a community aspect that fosters peer-to-peer support among HMO property investors. The firm continually develops new content, including case studies, workshops, and videos, integrating expert insights and partner arrangements. This comprehensive approach ensures that members have perpetual access to valuable resources, including archived Q&A sessions and a range of tools designed to streamline their investment activities.
