Common questions relating to Nationwide Building Society consent to lease

  • I have a homeowner mortgage with Nationwide Building Society and will be joining the Royal Fleet Auxiliary in August. This is a civilian manned fleet run by the Ministry of Defence. I will be at sea four months on and three months in the UK. Whilst away I want to lease out my house in Hackney and live with my mum and dad when on shore. I am confident that my rental income would cover my monthly repayments. Can you help?
  • Me and my husband live in a house where there exists some spare bedrooms. We are considering the idea of setting up an B&B type business to rent rooms out on a check-in and check-out arrangement. Are you aware if this kind of thing permitted under Nationwide Building Society’s standard 'consent to let' requirements?
  • I have rented out my garden flat in Newham for the last 20 months, and I didn't realise that I had to get consent to let. I now want to rectify this. What are the legal consequences of my failure to procure consent to let?
  • As a result my job, I am confident that Nationwide Building Society will issue me with Consent to Let from the outset of buying a property. My intention is to purchase a property in Hounslow and let it out, I will remain in the house that is provided (rent payable) by my employer. As I will be letting out the property I will obviously have to prepare a Self Assessment Tax Return, but I just want to check that although it is the only house I own (and it is not on a buy to let mortgage), will I still be able to claim Tax relief for the interest on the mortgage and the expenses of letting out the property. I can only find advice for those with a buy-to-let mortgage, but mine will technically not be B2L.
