From a purely “can this person actually save and look after themselves POV” it makes perfect sense doesn’t it?

Wouldn’t local council hold a structural report as part of the planning application, or for it to be included, either in part or in full, within the building reqs?

Enhanced homebuyers survey would not be in depth as a structural report. Since it has to cover so many bases.
Anyone own a second property/is a landlord? Aware there are restrictions with Buy to Let mortgages and a regular mortgage for a second home.
How do the mortgage lenders actually know that:
1) You're not letting family staying there rent free
2) You're letting it out as an Airbnb. Do they carry out checks on who pays the council tax or ASTs that have been signed?
3) Is a Holiday Let Mortgage better to consider if it's used 50/50 between family staying there and letting it out as an Airbnb?
Asking for a friend.

Offer accepted on a property, been recently converted from 3 flats to a single property (within 2 years) all planning done and above board.
Bank is asking for some structural reports relating to the conversion, assume this can be covered in an enhanced survey is this is something extra on top?

Building Regulations should confirm that the property has been converted in line with all building regs. Should be able to do a search on local authority portal for the property address and get the docs. If they want more than that, then you can ask why (especially if no major structural work was done) and if they insist then you can get this as part of an enhanced survey (a building survey - not the homebuyers report).
