I would hardly describe a 2.5% gross return before expenses, combined with static or falling sale prices, as “supernormal returns”. If I could sell at a sensible price, I would. I would then put the proceeds into tracker funds: no...

The market around London seems bad at the moment due to Iran war, interest rates, etc., so I am temporarily holding off selling in the hope that market rates will improve. However, whatever happens, I will want to be out...

The expected figures are probably incorrect. Since 5/4/25 I've set many of my clients up in partnership or as companies, both outside the scope of MTD. I expect many decent advisors have done the same

1. Always apply for a CCJ. The cost is minimal, it goes on the tenant's credit rating and you may even get paid. If not, you are potentially helping other landlords. 2. Always increase to market rent every year. Why...

The next hit will be when CGT rates are aligned with income tax rates. Best to sell before this happens, Asset prices are not likely to be going up materially any time soon and taxes and regulations will just keep...

Reply to the comment left by Mick Roberts at 16/06/2026 - 10:47I think you're being a bit unfair Mick - the tenants did have a vacuum cleaner propping up the wall and a bucket in the front garden, they just...

"The most common condition is requiring the tenant to maintain pet damage insurance throughout the tenancy. Note that charging a higher deposit specifically for pets remains prohibited under the Tenant Fees Act 2019 — insurance is the correct mechanism." Apparently...

Reply to the comment left by Judith Wordsworth at 12/06/2026 - 12:23The government seems to think it is a justified breach and therefore lawful?

You now say you are still self-employed, so that would be the source on which you pay NIC, not rental...

If you're a landlord you almost certainly aren't self-employed. Maybe you're self-employed and also a landlord? Alternatively, maybe you are completing your own tax return and filling in the wrong boxes? It may also be the case that you are...
