A lodger is someone who stays as a guest in your home and contributes to household costs. You may take a lodger as long as it does not overcrowd your home. Before doing so, you must seek permission by writing to Karin and providing details of the lodger.
Can I Rent Out (Sub-Let) My Home?
You cannot rent out (sub-let) your entire property. However, secure tenants can apply to sub-let part of their home, as long as it does not lead to overcrowding. Please note that Karin will not be responsible for repairs in the sub-let portion. You must write to Karin in advance and provide details of the part of your home you intend to sub-let.
If you receive social benefits, such as Housing Benefit or Income Support, you must inform the relevant benefit office if you sub-let part of your property, as this may impact the amount of benefits you receive.
