My husband and I may need to rent out our Kirkby in Ashfield ground floor flat temporarily due to taking a sabbatical.

How do we find out?

The landlord is not entitled to unreasonably refuse but, in such cases, they would need to review references. Experience suggests that problems are usually caused by unsatisfactory tenants rather than owner-occupiers and for that reason you can expect the freeholder to take up the references and consider them carefully before granting consent.
