How many square metres is that?Sounds like you're broadening the scope a bit!

He does not pay extra tax at present but then it probably hasn't crossed his mind to check if necessary.Not sure how this would all work with private pensions.

We got gazundered a year ago and ditched the attempted sale, only for the market to drop massively, we saw £35k knocked off our selling price. This has severely damaged our…[Read more]

Shame I can't "legally" keep the domestic mortgage for rental as…[Read more]

Would make interesting comparisons

The idea is to emigrate to S.A.Long story short, a gazundering offer we received only a few short months ago, before the recent financial storm, now looks like a missed golden opportunity…. Going back further, 2 years…[Read more]
