Frank (my husband) and I may need to sub-let our Church End 1st floor flat temporarily due to a new job. We instructed a Church End conveyancing practice in 2003 but they have since shut and we did not think at the time get any advice as to whether the lease allows us to sublet. How do we find out?
Even though your previous Church End conveyancing lawyer is no longer around you can check your lease to see if you are permitted to let out the property. The rule is that if the lease is non-specific, subletting is allowed. Quite often there is a prerequisite that you need to obtain consent from your landlord or some other party prior to subletting. This means you not allowed to sublet without prior consent. Such consent must not not be unreasonably withheld. If the lease does not allow you to sublet you should ask your landlord for their consent.
