Room lettings and HMO management in Old Trafford.
Old Trafford is two miles south-west of the city centre, home to Manchester United's football stadium and Lancashire's cricket ground. It has Metrolink stops at Old Trafford and Trafford Bar, and the UA92 campus is here too.
Living here
Ayres Road is the heart of the area, with grocers selling food from Europe, the Caribbean and South-East Asia, and many of the surrounding streets are Victorian terraces. Old Trafford meets Hulme, Moss Side and Whalley Range at Brooks's Bar, on its eastern edge.
Getting to uni
The 53 bus runs roughly every half hour along Stretford Road, through Hulme to Oxford Road, about 15 minutes to the University of Manchester. Metrolink trams from Old Trafford and Trafford Bar run into the city centre via Deansgate-Castlefield and St Peter's Square.
Good to know
Old Trafford is in the borough of Trafford rather than the city of Manchester, so HMO licensing and planning go through Trafford Council, which requires planning permission to turn a family house into an HMO. UA92's main campus is in the former Kellogg's building on Brian Statham Way, near the cricket ground.

HMO management in Old Trafford.
Own a shared house or HMO in Old Trafford? It's one of the areas we cover from our office on Dickenson Road. We find and reference the tenants, collect the rent, handle repairs and keep the licence and safety certificates in date. Or we do just the part you want help with.
HMOs here are licensed by Trafford Council. A house let to five or more people who form two or more households needs a mandatory HMO licence. Since December 2017 a borough-wide Article 4 direction has meant that turning a family home into a small shared house needs planning permission from the council. We can apply for the licence and keep it in date. Trafford Council: HMO licensing (opens the council's website)
