I'm currently applying for a mortgage as a first time buyer. I currently rent and my LL is great. The broker I am using, who has found me my mortgage and is doing the application for me; has asked for my LL contact details as apparently this is a requirement.
I feel very uneasy about this because of several reasons: firstly, I don't want my LL knowing that I plan on moving out; just incase my house sale falls through and secondly; I don't think it's right to hand out his details to a third party.
I need to ask the question, but haven't yet as to why they need to know this? What has it got to do with them? I can prove that I pay my rent each month without fail by producing bank statements.
Has anyone heard of this? I really do not want to hand out my LL details.
