Where a property lease contains a provision for the property to be used for private residential purposes only, short term holiday lets will not be permitted.

Subletting arrangements must be granted under an Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement to comply with the property lease.

We will take appropriate legal action to protect the rights of all leaseholders, where holiday lets are taking place in contravention of the property lease.

Registration can be completed online through our secure Tenant Portal.

Permission from a previous Landlord does not override the requirements of the lease to register each new Tenancy Agreement.

If you have any concerns, please contact us and provide us with a copy of the historic permission and we will review and confirm our requirements.

Most leases contain either a requirement to obtain the Landlord's Consent before subletting, or for registration of any such arrangement to be provided to the Landlord within 28 days.  Many leases contain both clauses.

We will only contact you requesting registration of a subletting arrangement where your lease contains such requirements.

If you are uncertain as to the specific requirements affecting your property, please review your lease or seek independent advice.
