Hi ROBERT,
There is nothing from a tax perspective, to prevent you from renting a residential property in the UK.
The number of days that you can remain in the UK and not be tax resident, will depend on your individual circumstances.
You will need to review the guidance on residence at RDR3 (
RDR3 Statutory Residence Test) and take the statutory residence tests to find out now long you can stay in the UK and not be liable to tax on your world-wide income.
Thank you.
