Top Five Questions relating to Ecology Building Society consent to lease

  • My husband and I may need to let our Bexley home temporarily due to a new job. This will be short-term but possibly for as long as 4 years. Do I inform Ecology Building Society or should I just keep quiet?

  • My fixed rate mortgage is approaching refinancing with Ecology Building Society. I have had the property rented out for a couple of years and I think I need to notifyEcology Building Society. My understanding is that I must apply for consent to lease, but bearing in mind that the property has already been rented out could they deny - force me to go onto a BTL rate or even fine me? I have over 25% equity in the house - and the rent will more than cover the mortgage.
  • I would like to explore if I can receive consent to let on my existing property. I have a mortgage with Ecology Building Society but my situation has changed.

I am unlikely to qualify for a buy to let loan as I don't have money for a deposit nor do I earn in excess of £25000 a year.
  • Please explain "consent to let" to me? I live in a 1 bed flat and its in good condition. It has been on with agents for two months and I have had very few viewings.
