Lodger question / restrictive covenants

by anothercanary

Good morning
I know this is a fairly common question but the wording is slightly different in the case of the leasehold flat I am buying. Essentially my question is whether I am able to take on a lodger,

Reply to consent to remortgage not given

by Gordon999

I doubt if your lease includes a clause stating that remortgage requires consent from the freeholder ??

Please check the wording in your lease ? Does the leaseholder require freeholder consent for subletting ?

Please post up the relevant clause for comment .

Reply to Flat double glazing consent

by Gordon999

If you are willing to pay for window replacement, go ahead because you cannot be sued for replacing your own window.

You should visit the Leasehold Knowledge Partnership website and conduct a search on the agent and freeholder.

Reply to Lodger question / restrictive covenants

by Gordon999

Lodgers live in the leaseholder's home ( or rental tenant ) and do not have any legal rights to remain in the property after 28 days notice to leave is served by leaseholder ( or rental tenant ). Therefore the conditions in the Lease do not apply to the lodger.
