This area covers the situation where a homeowner lets out a room or a part of their home while they continue to live there, known in plain language as becoming a live-in landlord. It involves choosing between a lodger licence or an assured informal tenancy, and navigating the rights and duties that arise for both the occupier and the homeowner. It depends on the type of agreement and how it is drafted, documented and enforced. The process may be shaped by tenancy rules, eviction rights and safety obligations.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decision is whether the occupier has a licence or a tenancy, which affects eviction rights and the level of protection. A solicitor can advise on drafting a clear licence or tenancy agreement, serving lawful notices, and handling issues such as rent payments, deposits, and potential disputes. They can also assist with safety standards, rights of access, and resolving conflicts without escalating to court proceedings when possible.

Jasmine Page

Tagged solicitor Jasmine Page

We have used Franklins Law for selling and buying property and the service we have received is always 5 stars. A very stressful process was eased, with regular communication and professionalism. Jasmine who was heavy involved in the purchase of our property, was fantastic. She was always quick to reply to my emails and constantly updated us with relevant information, something I personally found so helpful throughout the process. We will definitely use Franklins Law again in the future and would highly recommend to anyone selling and buying a house.
