Renting My First House.

Hi All
I have just purchased a nice little 3 bedroom bungalow, I want to rent out the entire house at present, what do I need to be aware of?
I plan not to furnish the house e.g. there will be no beds, tables and chairs etc, there will however be a cooker, fridge, washing machine as well as curtains and blinds in all the rooms. I plan to ensure the house is clean before letting it out and there is one smoke detector installed.
I will also take ownership with regard to the upkeep of the garden.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Erm, shouldn't you have looked into all of this before you actually bought the property? Professional landlords can have a hard enough time running their business looking after their investment and their tenants plus their own tax-affairs never mind an amateur one.
Join a landlords association and read up on your legal obligations on landlordzone BEFORE you even let a prospective tenant in to view!0 -
