Lodger agreements and licences

Renting a spare room is increasingly popular. The key to making sure that you stay in control is that you use the right type of agreement for your circumstances. Our lodger agreements are "licences to occupy", suitable where the landlord lives alongside the lodger. All are drawn by property lawyers, easy to edit and come with full explanatory guidance notes.

    What customers thought
    Great Service
    I'd no concern about using Net Lawman again, I'd had great service on a prior occasion. The document was just what I was looking for, and I had a very prompt and very helpful answer to my only question. A big thumbs up on the recommendation front from me, great value and great service.
