Lodgers and sub-letting

No – this is not allowed under your tenancy agreement.

Yes – as long as you do not over-crowd the property or sub-let the entire property then you can have a lodger.

If you are claiming housing benefit or Universal Credit you must inform the housing benefit department at your local council if you take in a lodger as this can affect the benefit.

You must also contact us to inform us of your lodger’s details, including:

• Full name
• Date of birth
• Gender
• Relationship to you (if any)
