As stated we would not be living as spouses as all paperwork, rental agreement and bills etc would be in his name solely and that I would only be “staying in one “of the bedrooms. The mortgage would be changed to a rental rate. I am aware that the best option is to rent out both properties and move into a new property either renting or buying and then claim all the benefits of two properties being rented but we are trying to avoid moving etc. So it’s more a question of is this legal in the eyes of the tax man as at this stage I would be renting the property to another person it’s just that I may also reside there.
No we are not defacto as he lives in his property at present and do not plan on being for awhile. The rental agreement and all accounts elect, gas will be in his name. the mortgage i have will be changed to a rental rate. It would be that i would be occupying a room at the house but I would not be listed on any agreement or accounts so technically I am not renting the property to myself just another person.
