I am looking into an opportunity for real estate landlords or property owners to store goods for another business in properties that are not let yet. This way, the landlord can generate income while the property is not occupied yet. Is this possible? Would any landlords be interested to discuss further?
Store goods in non-occupied properties to generate income?

Personally, I wouldn't be interested.
I think that's a change of use for planning purposes and would be an issue for my insurance (and any BTL mortgages).When I post, I am expressing an opinion - feel free to disagree, I have been wrong before.
Please don't act on my suggestions without checking with a grown-up (ideally some kind of expert).

Why would someone want to store things in a house rather then one of those storage specialist companies? Unless someone can undercut them significantly. They have 24 hour security, cctv, locks, alarm and appropriate insurance. The notice period is 7 days.
If there is a roof leak in a house or a break in, who is going to report it?
Houses have limitation, such as a narrow doorways, lack of a lift, trolleys, parking, loading bays..... pretty useless for larger trucks.
Council would be chasing you if there is an unoccupied house in the road.

That one person lives at this flat as their main residency, but lets a room to a lodger, this 'immediate' 'resident' landlord shares the kitchen and bathroom with this Lodger.
I understand a Lodger is not a Tenant,...-

by bob369Check the mortgage agreement itself to see how it define the term "HMO"
