My wife and I may need to sub-let our Axminster ground floor flat temporarily due to a new job. We instructed a Axminster conveyancing firm in 2003 but they have since shut and we did not have the foresight to get any advice as to whether the lease prohibits the subletting of the flat. How do we find out?

Even though your previous Axminster conveyancing lawyer is no longer around you can check your lease to check if you are permitted to let out the property. The rule is that if the lease is silent, subletting is permitted. There may be a precondition that you need to obtain permission from your landlord or other appropriate person prior to subletting. This means that you cannot sublet without first obtaining permission. Such consent is not allowed to be unreasonably withheld. If your lease prohibits you from letting out the property you should ask your landlord for their consent.
