Sample questions relating to Scottish Building Society consent to let

  • Frank (my fiance) and I may need to lease our Ealing home temporarily due to a career opportunity. This will be for a limited period but possibly for as long as five years. Must I notify Scottish Building Society or am I best advised to just keep quiet?

  • Within the next few days I intend to get in touch with Scottish Building Society for consent to let out my property in Scottish Building Society. However I have put the house on the market but there without a sniff of interest and forking out for a full mortgage, council tax and insurance on an empty house is exhausting my finances. What approach would Scottish Building Societytake if I have the house on the market?

  • I have a mortgage with Scottish Building Society. I would like to purchase a second house and my mortgage broker recommended I seek consent to let. As far as I am aware they will only accept the consent to let if I have the intention to go back to my current home. Is this correct?
  • My partner and I currently live in Melbourne and renting out our flat in Merton. This is not something we planned but an opportunity presented itself and we took it. The rental income is not enough to cover the mortgage so we send back funds each month to make up the difference. Yesterday I got a letter in the mail from our lender telling me that because the property is being let out and has been for nearly four years we will have to pay 1.5% interest in addition to our current mortgage rate. One option would be to sell the apartment but this will be difficult as I am on the other side of the world. Would it be possible to remortgage with Scottish Building Society and get consent to let?
