Book Valuation

You will need to tell the following people that you indent to rent your property.

The Bank – if you have mortgage you will need to ensure that you have permission to rent the property, some lenders will not allow the property to be rented and it is possible that you will need to change your mortgage first. A quick call to them should clarify what you need to do.

Insurance Company – you must make sure that the property is correctly insured and the best way is to talk to a specialist company to help, we can give you the details of some if required.

Everyone else – if you have lived in the property don’t forget to set up mail redirection so that you can inform anybody that writes to you. Once the tenant moves in you cannot go back into the property without their consent, not even to pick up the post!
