first time renting how do i know what i pay wil

Jalal

i am 26 and about to move out what a late bloomer, anyway,
Silly question if I wanted to become a lodger is there any protection that i have if i pay into llandlords account, for example they deny payment for example

what is the best way to go about this whether with a live in landlord or live out i know about checking legitimacy of llandlord but im just being careful about signing fake contracts etc any advice

Thanks

If you live in the same house as your LL, you're a lodger. If you live alone, you're a tenant.

Lodgers have few rights. You just basically rent a room and if they want you out, you're out - on the basis of whatever your contract says (if you have one). Often a week's notice, or slightly more.

Transfer money, don't pay cash.

You could also consider a house share with others - not the LL.
