LendInvest consent to let: Q and A’s

  • Jennifer (my wife) and I may need to lease our Bexley home for a while due to a career opportunity. This will be for a limited period but possibly for as long as 2 years. Should I tell LendInvest or am I best advised to just keep quiet?

  • I am purchasing a two bedroom ground floor purpose built flat in Islington. My intention is to reside there for a year, and subsequently move into a bigger flat. Rather than sell the prior apartment I would like to let it out so that it form part of an investment portfolio. Do you know if LendInvest would grant consent to let in such a situation?
  • I have a 2 bedroom leasehold maisonette with a LendInvest mortgage and have a lodger in the 2nd bedroom. I have decided to take a job in a different city and will rent there. My lodger wishes to remain and is willing to pay an increased rent. Do I have to get consent to let via LendInvest?
  • How many months after getting a new mortgage will a consent to let be likely to be granted by LendInvest? By way of history I purchased my flat in Barnet 2 years ago and am currently on a fixed term for 3 years. I since met a guy and now we are looking at moving in together. I am planning to get a better fixed term next December. I presume that I would have to hold off for at least half a year before I could apply for consent to let. Is that correct?
  • I have a LendInvest mortgage currently and may wish to let it out for a limited period of time with consent from LendInvest for (1 year). How easy is it to obtain consent to let?
  • I was just looking into consent to let as it's something potentially I would need from LendInvest inside the next year. Our family circumstances has changed, and I wish to rent my place out
  • Can you help with a question...if consent to let is given by LendInvest would it usually be subject to a time limit, such as one year?
  • I was wondering if you can assist. I do not have consent to let from LendInvest and was wondering if this option is available to me to switch to as I have to move back home to look after my mum
