RE: Replacement Boiler in Rental Property
Hi,
Thanks for your question.
As per HS340 found here:
HS340 Interest and alternative finance payments eligible for relief on qualifying loans and alternative finance arrangements (2021),
qualifying loan payments can be deducted as an allowable expense.
I would advise that it would depend on if you use either the Cash or Traditional Basis for your business. If using the Cash Basis, you would declare loan payments on a yearly basis, if using the Traditional Basis, then this would be declared as one sum in the same Tax Return.
Thank you. -
RE: taxation of rental property for unmarried partners
Hi Ollie,
Thanks for your question.
If you have both decided to allocate 100% of the rental income to yourself, with your girlfriend receiving 0% of the beneficial interests (rental income and expenses) then for the aspect of rental property, if this is the sole property you rent then only yourself would need to complete the SA105 UK Property page of the Self-Assessment Tax Return.
Thank you. -
RE: Deed of Assignment Rental Claim
Hi Gazahawk25,

You are required to submit a Deed of Trust and form 17 (if a married couple or civil partnership). As each party must have a beneficial interest in the property.

RE: Question about repairs/redecorating after end of tenancy
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
No relief is due for those expenses because the repairs being undertaken are not repairs to the let property itself.

RE: Fill in Return Online
Hi Deborah,
Thank you for your question.
Finance costs refer to the loan interest you paid in respect of your borrowing relative to your property income and to no other expenditure. Your lender should be able to provide you with this information, therefore confirming the interest charges levied against your borrowings.
Thank you. -
RE: Rental income for unequal shares - not married
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
As you have declared that you are neither married or in a civil partnership, all that is required is that you declare the actual percentage of profit you received individually.

RE: Unused residential finance costs on SA
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
If your profit from property income for example £2K your finance costs are £2500. You can use £2k to cover the profit and the unused finance costs can carried forward to the following year.
Furthermore, financial cost is only relieved at a Rate of 20%.
I would suggest that when completing your Income from property page, of your tax return, you contact us by telephone, and we will walk you through this aspect.
Alternatively, you could follow the guidance at:
Tax relief for residential landlords: how it's worked out - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) and
UK property notes (2022) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Thank you. -

Please see our CWG2 booklet - CWG2: further guide to PAYE and National Insurance contributions - section 4.6 onwards offers more info on employees working in and out of the UK. Alternatively you can call us on 0300 200 3200 to discuss your scenario further and we can advise accordingly.
