Thanks. What does the extension mean for landlords?

Hi, Does anyone know what the recent changes to the eviction ban are?

As a landlord with a company structure, should I be worried about the upcoming changes to Corporation Tax?

Have you checked the "cut-off point" when it is more financially viable to own properties in a company than in your own name? I am sure that @Nicholas Wallwork , the owner of this website, will be able to help you find a suitable adviser/accountant.

While it is all good and well politicians waxing lyrical about security for tenants, what about landlords? We have already seen a huge number of landlords exit the buy to let market because of ever rising costs. If those landlords who remain are left with huge rent arrears as a consequence of...

What rights are written into the land deeds regarding the soakaway? Is this something you have looked at yet?

What would you recommend @rugsters ? I think this is a time we will look back on and wish we had acted.

I don't think there is any need to go into great detail here. While you start fairly confidently in the beginning of the post, by the end you have serious concerns about taking on the legal responsibility. From my experience, you get very little in the way of appreciation for taking on these...

This issue must be the responsibility of the homeowner? All you can do is ask them to rectify the problem, I am sure the local authority would be keen for a resolution as well, and then buy the land from them. I don't think you would want to buy land with the ongoing issue. Where will they put...
