I've been approached by a lady who lives in our road (I know her to chat to occasionally) about friends of hers who would be interested in renting our property, which I was just about to give to put on market They-an elderly mother and her daughter- want to move to the area. Both from SA originally. Apparently the two elderly ladies are childhood friends!
The daughter owns her own property elsewhere-in a good area with high rental income- which they currently live in and intend renting out.. She has lived and worked in UK (large financial setting) for some 20 years and has been joined by her mother in the last few months. Obviously obtaining refs for the mother will be a problem! Daughter should be easy enough.. They'd like to view the house this weekend. Would be interested in moving in as soon as they possibly could, which would be great for us as well, all things going well.
It's been a while since I've done a private let, including refs (tempted to refer them to local agent to carry out there for me) so want to get it right. So how best to approach? Will look up requirements ie EPA, Boiler Certificate, Electrical Cert, How to Rent etc Anything else I need to consider? Thanks everyone!
