Overseas landlords and rentals by the sea

The cosmopolitan coastal city of Brighton is an attractive place to own a rental property.

• It is a short commute from London – think affluent commuters
• It is one of the UK’s fastest growing tech hubs – think investment and continued growth
• It has a disproportionately large number of students – think letting opportunities
• It has an equally disproportionate number of international students – think affluent student letting opportunities
• It attracts young families looking to escape the big smoke – think long-term house rentals

House prices may be high but the potential yields are higher still. We’ll say it again: Brighton is an attractive place, but it’s an even more attractive place to own a rental property.

Tax advice for non-resident landlords

It is our goal to make sure that managing your rental property in Brighton whilst living overseas has never been easier. This means not only taking rents but talking sense.

The first thing we need to talk to you about is the non-resident landlord scheme.

If you have rental property in the UK, but your usual home is outside the UK, under this scheme you must have basic rate tax deducted from your rental income before it is passed onto you.

The good news is that you can set this tax off against your own tax bill at the end of the year. Here are some examples of expenses which are potentially allowable:

• Accountancy, legal and professional fees
• Advertising costs
• Cleaning and gardening
• Costs of rent collection
• Some periods of council tax and rates
• Ground rent
• Insurance for buildings and contents
• Interest paid on loans to buy, build or improve property
• Some maintenance charges
• Service provision (e.g. gas, electricity, hot water) and water rates
• Repairs

We will register you with the Inland Revenue’s non-resident landlord scheme and help you understand how you can use your expenses to maximise your yield from your property rental.
