One option we are considering for the future is to hold onto our properties and so avoid CGT and leave it to the IT to give HMRC their cut. This would be foolhardy unless we kept up on the borrowing...

Reply to the comment left by "Bill Williams" at "04/05/2016 - 14:52": I am sympathetic, and also I am wary that we'll have the People's Front of Judea etc etc. Thus reducing Landlords overall clout with Government. My dream is...

I like the idea. My preference would be to have a long term aim to join up with the existing lot like the NLA once they see the success of a more genuine group. So leave the NLA to lobby...

I am not a West Brom customer but I pitched in to support the campaign because I'm an MEx borrower and have BM Life-of-loan Trackers too. It is just this potential scenario that caused me to help fight West Brom....

I phoned them and talked through my plans to sell. They said it would have no impact on my other MX properties under the current rules (Jan 2015) but they could not promise their rules wouldn't change. The sale completed...

Thanks James, I get what you are saying on all the other aspects brought in if the profit before interest payments is high. My only come-back is that the example numbers you gave are for an extremely foolhardy investor. Interest...

Reply to the comment left by "Gary Dully" at "05/10/2015 - 10:39": Thanks Gary, I have not looked at the spreadsheet, but you have prompted me to play with some numbers. Firstly surely HMRC only taxes income. So if there...

Reply to the comment left by "money manager" at "03/10/2015 - 16:10": Yes, I take your point on the 10% W&T, it is a case of only positive effects of changes I think we're getting closer as we discuss. I...

Reply to the comment left by "money manager" at "03/10/2015 - 14:44": You make a plausible account for how the changes may have some negative social impacts. A case for other positive ones could also be made. You can't make...

Reply to the comment left by "money manager" at "03/10/2015 - 13:00": Yes, any change will produce cases where it is not fair on some losers. But doing nothing can as well. The plight of first time buyers feels unfair...

Reply to the comment left by "Laura Delow" at "30/09/2015 - 18:23": I am not an Osbourne supporter, but I don't really agree with you. If wider society agrees that the balance between B2L and first time buyers is wrong,...

Reply to the comment left by "Mark Alexander" at "17/08/2015 - 17:39": I thought I was told that if any property was above 85%, they would use the equity to pay down the loan to make it 85%...... even if...

Folks, I said earlier here: "We have several MX mortgages and are aware of the dangers. However after a few calls we have been promised that sale of one property will not affect the other loans. This is because the...
