Cool, thanks for that. It will all be above board im sure, i just want to make sure im not leaving myself open to unneeded headaches.
By "right to rent" is that just that I'm in the country legally etc?

Yeah

Probably also worth making sure he is allowed to rent and not hamstrung by an planning issues and or conditions on a mortgage.

Plus as JBZ notes there is the whole issue with regards to your deposit.

You .must do checks to make sure that the tenant is legally in the UK.   Pretty sure that this is law.  I use an agent who does this for me so can't help you how to go about it.   I know it costs me every month but I do nothing, they find the tenants, vet  them and sort all the paperwork, collect the rent,  and sort any problems,  so much easier.

Chubbs is the tenant. I think he might know if he's legit or not
