  1. Agree, I have always thought that we as tax payers should be able to choose which services we would like our tax to be spent on, nhs yes, pot holes yes, support for elderly yes, funding the arts no, these are but a few, if you choose to pay tax to fund the arts then i don't have a problem with that. Looks like Rayner made a choice not to pay
  2. Yes, i can remember years ago, swapped a gas boiler for a tenant, took them a couple of electric heater to keep warm, they then shortly afterwards presented me with the electric bill for the additional electric used, crazy.
  3. Add additional concrete plinths to prevent kicking damage, smaller fence panel or cut existing above with internal side fixings
  4. I tend to go along with the engineer that I am paying to complete the cert, otherwise he may refuse to sign it off
  5. Yes , I am the same, long term tenants, but when you have some properties that are now in the 300k bracket rented out at a yield of 3.5%, then it makes you think sell.
  6. If local councils are so short of housing, then they can buy all mine that come empty at a discount, as long as HMRC don't charge me CGT
  7. Never thought id say this but, if any of the houses come empty, think I will sell, pay the CGT move on. Personally I think tenants that have always paid there rent should be given at least 6 months notice.
  8. I was thinking more on the lines of me leasing her the properties for a fixed amount, any void periods, repairs, insurance etc has to come from her %
  9. What about repairs, or, is that included in the 8%
  10. We have 41 lets, thinking of my daughter taking over all responsibility for maintenance, rents etc. Pretty much the same as renting a chair in a hairdressers, i still get my rent even if you don't have a customer. I still work on the tools 6 days a week building etc, 70 in January, got enough work for next 5 years on new builds etc. Then that's me finished. The question is, what percentage of the rental income should she receive for taking over?
  11. Could have fitted heat deflector above the oven, only a thought
