• More flexibility: When you rent, you're not tied down to a mortgage. You can move whenever you want, without having to worry about selling your house and waiting to find a buyer. When your tenancy expires you will move onto a rolling agreement with only a 30-day notice required.
• Less financial commitment: Renting is usually less expensive than buying a house. You don't have to worry about a hefty deposit, solicitor fees, or property purchasing taxes.
• Less maintenance: When you rent, the landlord is responsible for large-scale maintenance and repairs. This means you don't have to worry about fixing a leaky roof or a broken boiler.
• More freedom to travel: When you rent, you're not tied down to a specific location. You can travel more easily without having to worry about finding a place to stay.

Of course, there are also some drawbacks to renting. For example, you may not be able to make as many changes to your rental property as you would if you owned it. And you may have to account for rent increases every year, as the property's rental value moves in line with the market.
