I am an American interested in renting an apartment in London for 6 months. I am (getting) familiar with the right-to-rent conditions, and I am wondering if anyone has experience with the process. I assume that since a US citizen can stay in the UK for up to 6 months, I should be able to satisfy the right-to-rent requirements for a short-term rental, but I would be grateful to hear from anyone who is familiar with the issue. I am particularly interested in knowing whether the conditions can be satisfied before entry into the UK so that the clock on the 6-month leave-to-enter period doesn’t start running before I have even found a place to rent. Thanks for any information.
