Your questions
Questions owners ask
Does the property need to be furnished?
For working guests, yes. The furnishing can be planned with you before anything starts.
Do you take flats?
Yes, where the lease and the building's insurance allow short and mid-length stays.
What if my lender has not given consent?
Consent comes first. Nothing goes ahead without it.
Do you take property that needs work?
For a quiet sale, yes. For letting it needs to be safe and ready.
