I would suggest, this is where a Broker would come in to it… with contacts who are Solicitors, who can provide independent (free) guidance. Understanding the tenancy agreement that’s in place would be a starting point. How he positions his plans with a lender could have an impact on products available. Always happy to pick up and have a look, provide an opinion / guidance - as I’m sure Journo Tyke would. ahardcastle@tudorfcltd.co.uk
Thank you both, and everyone else for that matter, for offers of help, and advice, respectively. I will be chatting more in depth over the coming days, so I will see what direction he prefers.
