Welcome to the Lodger Landlord web-site!

Are you short of cash?

Thats a bit of a personal question, I know. But if you are finding it difficult to make ends meet, if the bills are piling up around you, and if you are wondering whether you can still afford to eat dinner, you might want to consider renting a room in your home  to a lodger. Or you may already rent to lodgers. Either way, you will find this web-site very helpful.

21 days of tips for Lodger Landlords. This is a series of blogposts which ran from 1st to 21st February.  They cover all the things which might be worrying you (and perhaps a few things you haven’t thought of) about renting a room out to a lodger. Such as your legal obligations, choosing lodgers, dealing with problem lodgers, whether you need to worry about the HMO regulations, and so on.  So if you are a lodger landlord, pop on over to >> this page, where you will find a useful index page.

Please feel free to add comments, tell stories about your own experience, and make suggestions for other things you would like me to write about, or services you would like us to provide.

If you want more, why not buy my book The Quick Guide to Taking in a Lodger. You can read about it >> here. For paperwork, see my >>  Lodger Landlord Documents Shop.  If it all goes wrong (and in most cases it won’t) there is my >> Advice service.

Note – any legal matters described in the Lodger Landlord website will only apply to England and Wales (as I am only qualified in English law). However many of the more practical issues will apply everywhere.
