INCOME TAX 

When you start renting out property, you must tell HM Revenue & Customs and you may have to pay tax.  If you fail to do so, you could face a penalty. 

Please check the following link to the government’s website regarding payment of tax:

• buildings and contents insurance
• letting agents’ fees
• legal fees for lets of a year or less, or for renewing a lease for less than 50 years
• accountants’ fees
• interest on property loans
• maintenance and repairs to the property (but not improvements)
• utility bills such as gas, water and electricity
• your own rent, ground rent, service charges
• Council Tax
• services you pay for, such as cleaning or gardening
• other direct costs of letting the property, such as phone calls, stationery and advertising
• If you are an overseas landlord, you can apply for tax exemption but you will need to contact your local tax office.  We are able to assist you in the process and paperwork that is required.
