GE Money consent to let: Q and A’s

  • Two years ago I was granted consent to let from my current mortgage provider which is about to run out. I have since been traveling and had my first child.

I have been told I can't extend my consent to let and if I continue renting out I will be in action would be taken for breaching my mortgage contract. As a result of my low income I don't think the buy to let will be approved. One option I am considering remortgaging to GE Money. Are they likely to give consent to let from day one?
