Reply to the comment left by Katherine F at 11/02/2026 - 01:55The facts are quarterly digital returns for 26 - 27 only apply if your income from property and self employed income exceed £50,000 in the 24 - 25 tax...
It is important to remember that the £50,000 limit is for income from property - state pension and interest earned from savings are not included in the £50000. HMRC wrote to me to say I had to submit my tax...
I am sure many Landlords are wondering exactly when they should serve a Section 21 notice before they are unable to. The news about the amendments says that we will have 3 months to evict tenants after the bill becomes...
I don't think it would make any difference if the NRLA had more members - the government just want to hammer landlords, so they leave the market and the PRS is run by corporate landlords. it seems to be working...
The answer is quite simple - issue a Section 21 as soon as you can. At present you do not have to give a reason for giving them a Section 21 and assuming all your paperwork is in order, the...
It definitely sounds like a lifestyle problem of the tenants. I would get a report from a damp proofing Company which is free, who will confirm that and prove it is not a structural problem, so you are covered if...
Agree with New Yorkie - you should not vote for a party based on whether or not you like the leader. Just because TC has dragged up a slanderous article from the woke, liberal Guardian slandering Nigel Farage, does not...
I agree with nearly all of you - Reform have the Conservative policies that we would have had had Margaret Thatcher still been Prime Minister. I believe their policies represent what most people in this country would like to see....
So good to see lots of helpful landlords! Your problem is identical to one of my top floor flats with a similar layout. My problem was solved with a piv unit in the loft and a single vent through to...
I have successfully queried an EPC with the assessor who changed if from a D to a C once I had clarified the insulation in the flat roof. The problem is they quite often "assume" things about the property which...
Most damp and condensation is caused by tenant lifestyle. Even when told how to ventilate etc and do all the other things which prevent condensation, tenants generally don't bother. These PIV's are the most amazing answer to this problem. Where...
Also, of course, apparently heat pumps only heat the water to 54 degrees which is below the recommended 60 degrees declared by the Health and Safety Executive to prevent Legionnaires disease. They are least efficient when needed the most in...
You can do all this yourself, but get someone to check your Court application to make sure it is all in order. I have done this myself several times and been successful every time.
Go to Court to evict, but your paperwork must be completely accurate with no errors. It costs £355. You need to make 3 copies of all your paperwork, 1 for the court, 1 for the tenant and 1 for you....
Michael is right. I had this problem before. You need to show your photos of the uninhabitable state of the property to your Valuation Office - they need to remove it from the Valuation list until it is habitable again,...
Yes, it will be a game changer for tenants as they will: 1. Find it increasingly difficult to find accommodation to rent due to the large numbers of landlords selling up and evicting their problematic tenants before Section 21 is...
When I started to read this article, I thought the NRLA had turned into Shelter! Who's side are they on? - certainly not the Landlords if they want to add more burdensome bureaucracy and paperwork for us to complete. Tenants...
Yes, I too am selling at least two thirds of my total of 25 properties. I fear that the current severe shortage of rentals will soon be massively worse as more and more landlords sell. I wonder if the Landlord...
