RM8 · Becontree & Dagenham
RM8 sits in the vast interwar Becontree Estate — one of the largest council-built estates in the world. Much of the stock keeps permitted development rights for rear and loft projects; the borough-wide HMO Article 4 means a house-to-HMO conversion needs planning permission.
