Britannia consent to let: Q and A’s

  • I spoke to a IFA friend last week. She said that if I decide to move abroad with my job for a period then I should not apply for consent to let from my lender (Britannia) until at least four weeks before I plan to rent out my flat. Am I to understand that I have to find a tenant first and then obtain a consent to let?
  • Due to meet with my IFA on Thursday. I will seek Consent to Let from my current lender Britannia. My new property in Haringey will be 80% LTV.

  • I are looking to let out our two bedroom first floor purpose built maisonette in Waltham Forest in July. I would like some guidance on what I need to do.

  • I previously took a mortgage with Britannia, but I have to get consent to let for approximately 12 months as my partner is unwell and is struggling to balance work with the hectic environment we are living in.
