Reply to the comment left by at 03/07/2026 - 08:10Yes, you are right that many landlords were pushed into property as a means of getting a return on their savings. This doesn't mean that they don't care about their tenants,...

The government can tell by the large increase in Capital Gains Tax what is happening to the PRS. I suspect this is part of the plan as this money comes to the government now, so is worth more than worrying...

This is just a total nonsense.HMRC have not worked with anyone to do anything! If they really knew what they were doing they would have a dedicated spreadsheet template on the HMRC website that was free and could be used...

I would say that most problem tenants are in public sector housing. It is obvious just driving down the street where they are by the mess in the gardens. I'm on my way out, just sold another house today. I...

I wonder if this also applies to public/social housing? This is a poorly managed area with a high rate of arrears. It would be great if the councils could get their finger out on managing their own issues instead of...

The trouble is we probably have a million more people since early 2000 which is one of the reasons there is a shortage of houses. There is an easy solution – build more homes and encourage more people to enter...

Looks like the landlord exodus is in full swing! I'm on it now. The thing is you can't just sell up all your properties in one go as noone now wants to enter the market. So, people are selling, rental...

So, you are sitting with £200000 in investments and interest rates are 0.5%. Obviously a 4 or 5 percent return through letting property sounds attractive. There isn't much admin and apart from just keeping things in order maintenance wise, which...

Absolutely! The result of all these policies is to drive up rents, more costs for landlords and the end of cheap rents accommodation. The government then worries about inflation and a lack of disposable income to support the consumer led...

Northernpleb you are right! The government is not interested in housing people and wants to push landlords to sell up and pocket the CGT windfall now. As with all governments they don't care if they cause problems in the future....

Reply to the comment left by Neil P at 16/03/2026 - 12:16The government will know because to link it to your tax account you have to go through HMRC. I went with My Tax Digital as after 2 days of...

Already wasted 2 days working out the most suitable product for me and registering with them and HMRC. What a shambles!

Sold my properties in Wales, a lucky escape! Mind you there is nothing to rent now so prices have gone up, a total success for the Rent Smart Wales tax on landlords and tenants.

Well, a 2% tax increase means that rents will have to go up by that extra amount on top of the usual increase just to stay still. Spent a day yesterday wrestling with Making Tax Difficult just another meaningless cost...

Well, I'm selling as is everyone else I know. 5% stamp duty and other upfront costs mean it just isn't worth it. I can get 5%return on government bonds with no CGT- why would you bother investing in property? The...

Reply to the comment left by Julian Lloyd at 20/12/2024 - 10:47Yes, the law of supply and demand means that even really nice reasonable people are going to struggle to find somewhere to live. This and the previous government haven't...

Ok, so 43% are going to do the upgrades, 34% are going to sell. What are the rest going to do? If a third of landlords sell up then there will be a housing crash and a lot of homeless...
