Renting a room in your home

Renting out a room in your home is a great way of earning some extra income.  You do not need to be a homeowner to rent out a room in your property.  If you are renting you should check whether your rental agreement allows you to take in a lodger and if you have a mortgage you need to check that taking in a lodger is within your mortgage lenders terms and conditions.

We aim to support and encourage those with spare rooms to rent them out. The booklet below provides a useful introduction concerning how to go about renting out a room. Key website links are included for each topic which direct to more detailed information.
