Mortgage Guides: Selling Guide

addition to the family means more space is needed, or children leaving home
means you want to downsize. Perhaps your work requires you to relocate,
or do you simply fancy a change?

• Rent out a room
• Rent out the whole property and buy another with a buy-to-let mortgage
