It's got to be difficult to prove...I've often been in a situation where 4 people want to rent the house for advertised rent. 3 people have to miss out and I don't think justification is mandatory.

I meant ANY 'property rental business'

Reply to the comment left by Paul Essex at 31/07/2026 - 19:41Agreed, it's the work of the Devil...it makes any kind of future planning very difficult and unreliable. If I go down the route of incorporation (at extreme cost), how...

I'm no expert, although I do let one HMO to students myself, but as soon as the tenancy commences, surely the named tenants should have access to the keys? I'm not sure it would be legal to include a clause...

Improved EPC rating won't save my tenants money on bills as they are students and bills are included. I'd probably have to spend £30k to save a couple of hundred quid a year on a Victorian mid terrace…not happening. How...

Reply to the comment left by Mark Alexander - Founder of Property118 at 19/09/2025 - 15:14Thanks for the response, Mark...Good food for thought! I don't think the Sector is dead, I just feel slightly disenfranchised. If you're not incorporated, you're...

Section 24 and SDLT was enough to knock it on the head for me so we stopped at 4. It would take too long to cover the extra costs of that with equity accrual I think...and the income in the...

Reply to the comment left by at 04/08/2025 - 12:40I stopped looking into it when I worked out the Capital Gains and SDLT due as a result of incorporation. Then I looked at the cost of selling them off and...

Reply to the comment left by Denise G at 14/06/2025 - 09:39Since it was part of the manifesto that got you voted in by the public perhaps? (Political persuasion aside of course!)

Reply to the comment left by Mick Roberts at 13/06/2025 - 19:24Not worth waiting for the next General Election and hoping for the best?

Most student accommodation includes bills so don't see how these upgrades would save the tenants money...Just more anti-landlord, pro-renter hot air from Labour!

My student rental includes all bills...no amount of "significant bill savings" will benefit the tenants. Same applies for the EPC nonsense...

Same concept then...S21 doesn't really bother me, never had to serve one in 15 years and I choose not to increase rents mid tenancy - the longer the tenancy goes on, the less I hear from the tenants, and the...

All valid points... But I'm in this for the long run and can only hope that Labour are ousted after 5 years. CGT is enough to put me off selling AND holding me back from incorporation, so planning to survive...

I know this is a stretch of the imagination BUT if Labour are intent on dropping rents, bear with me, do you think I'm being overly optimistic to wonder if they'll consider scrapping S24, in order to create a bit...

Aside from all the politics, I'm struggling to understand how teaching assistants exist when their average rent, as a percentage of income, is 106%.

As a career contractor in the Space/Telecoms industry, with only 4 BTLs between my wife and I, it would be a safe assumption that I/we lean towards voting Tory... The only way I can see things improving for LLs in...
