ASK509: Should I rent to the council? PLUS: Does personal ownership make sense for me?
It's time for your weekly dose of Ask Rob & Rob – let's get stuck into two new questions!
- (0:46) Dan's been approached by a rent-to-rent company offering to lease his property on behalf of the council. They’re promising guaranteed rent, full management, and to return the property to its original condition. It sounds almost too good to be true – so he turns to Rob & Rob to find out if it really is.
- (5:04) Tim's an expat about to buy his third UK buy-to-let. His first two are held in his personal name and sit comfortably within his tax-free allowance. He’s wondering whether setting up a limited company might future-proof his portfolio, even if it means paying corporation tax immediately and asks Rob & Rob for their advice.
