SELECTIVE LICENSING · REVIEWED RECORD

Wandsworth selective licensing: designation 1

Wandsworth’s first selective designation covers four mapped wards. It began with the borough-wide additional HMO designation in July 2025.

Evidence reviewed Recorded period: to Revision 1
The exact address needs a boundary check.

This is a partial-area designation. Ward names and postcodes cannot by themselves establish whether this property is covered. Use the council map or address service.

Which properties does the designation cover?

Furzedown, Tooting Bec, South Balham and Tooting Broadway, inside the red boundary and yellow area in Annex A.

  • Privately rented homes in the designated area not covered by an HMO route or exemption.

Scope, exclusions and separate checks

Exact address coverage remains manual. Converted blocks and individual flats need council advice, and additional HMO licensing takes precedence where applicable.

  • Mandatory or additional licensable HMOs use the relevant HMO route instead.
  • Social housing, management orders, temporary exemptions and statutory exempt tenancies require the notice’s exact definitions.

Fees and the council application

Use Wandsworth’s current fee schedule and application process for your property. This record does not infer a fee from another council or a past year. A Rental Licensing subscription does not pay the council, submit an application or grant a licence.

What to do next

  1. Confirm the exact address using the council map and designation 1 notice.
  2. Use the current dated fee schedule rather than an older FAQ amount.
