Can you let out your property?
If you’re buying a property using a mortgage, you have to get the consent of your lender if you want to let out your property.
If you own a leasehold property, you should check the terms of the lease to ensure that you're allowed to let your dwelling. You should also be aware that if you buy a property under the Help to Buy scheme, you are disbarred from letting it out.
If you have bought a shared ownership property, your lease forbids you from subletting your home as a rule unless there are 'compelling social reasons', such as your needing to relocate as a requirement of a job.
