What are Permitted Occupiers?

A permitted occupier is an individual authorised by the landlord to live at the rented property but isn't the tenant. A permitted occupier is not a party of the tenancy agreement. This means that the legal relationship of the tenancy is only between the landlord and the tenant.

How to add Permitted Occupiers to a tenancy in Street

Note - When adding a permitted occupier, they must be a 'person' in your network. If needed, you can just create a new person when adding them.

If creating a tenancy directly from the property page or via a lettings application, you'll see the option to add a permitted occupier below the 'tenants' section by clicking add new permitted occupier.

If you have an existing tenancy and need to add the permitted occupier, head to the tenancy page > tenancy details tab > add new permitted occupier.
