Should I take a tenant reference for new lodger?
I would like some advice regarding taking in a live in lodger. I was wondering if it would be necessary or advisable to obtain a tenant reference for a live in lodger prior to them moving in as it is for a tenant renting a property on an AST.![]()
Any advice would be most helpful.

Thank you, David. He did say after this incident that he wouldn’t return here drunk as “it’s not fair on you” – magnanimous of him!
Thanks for your advice.

No problem. I hope it all works out. Sometimes it does.
