Paying off mortgage
When we have paid our mortgage off, would I be correct in my understanding that we can only live in the property as long as we don't sign another lease again? And that the disadvantage of not signing another lease is that there will no longer be a 'guaranteed' rent? Also that we are not required to sign another lease as long as we give the relevant notice at the required time? Are standard estate agents (who will only pay rent where tenants are installed) likely to take on a leaseback property?
