Questions
How is property tax calculated?
Property tax calculations consider all allowable expenses against rental income, incorporating applicable reliefs, allowances and exemptions based on your individual circumstances.
What happens if I don't pay property tax?
Non-payment of property tax risks late fees, interest charges, legal action, and potential property liens - we recommend proactive compliance measures.
Can I deduct mortgage payments as expenses?
Only the interest portion of mortgage payments is deductible as an expense, with reduced relief under section 24 for higher rate taxpayers.
