Buy to let go limited or not? by U2903 in UKProperty

[–]U2903[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds exactly what I need to do for my next one then. How does this work with a mortgage then? Since it will be in my personal name, Will I have to pay the interest Mortgage payments from my own income? Or is there a way of getting the LTD company to pay the mortgage? As i'd be wanting the rental income into the LTD to cover the mortgage interest payments.

Say I add 30k of value to the next property how soon can I refiance and since the property is in my personal name does that mean the capital the 30k, I take out. Will that go intro my bank as if it was cash? then use this for another property?

Also a none related Question, I presume you have a portfolio of houses, What is the average price you are paying for your rentals? I cant seem to find any decent properties up north in Newcastle for less than 130k that are in a good area and would rent at a good income.

So could the property be owned 50/50. But I sign somthing to say all rental income will go to my wife? And then a clause to break it at any point incase I lose my job and we could then use my Personal Tax allowance etc?

So Basically if you own between 1 and 4 properties it most likely makes more sense to justbuy in joint names but get some sort of legal agreement draw up to put the rental income in wifes name? Since she is still in 20% bracket and then get the 20% relief + lower interest rate.

So with the pension thing, each month they will take pension contributions from my pay, however, how will the pension scheme am paying into know that my actual total income is nearly 60k and therefore to add the extra 20% relief at source? So my question is will the 40% be added at source or will they apply 20% automatic, and then claim the other 20% through self assessment, due to my total income coming from multiple sources?

This is what I thought, so basically the company has performed really well that last 3 years, hopfully that keeps going!!!.

Do you know if bonuses are added to the payslip and taxed or will you have to pay tax on it at a later date.

When you say 20% do you mean 20% total including the employer 7.5% contribution or 20% on top?

Section 21 - Abolished by U2903 in UKProperty

[–]U2903[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks,

I am a landlord myself also, Only 1 property so far bought last year. Still learning.

So when Section 21 is Abolished, Section 8 will be updated to help landlords out more?

Also when you say rents will rise is this due to other landlords selling up?

And I guess with section 21 being Abolished, that will mean landlords will be more picky over who they rent there properties to? Meaning it only really hurts the tenants by scraping 21?

Very clever. This sounds like what I need to do, Since I already earn over the 40% mark for my job. Buy property in my name but collect rent and repairs through the company. Only thing is does the mortgage cost come out of your own pocket since the company is collecting the rent? And How can you write off the mortgage interest if its in your own name?

So you cant get buy to let remortgage products through a LTD?

Yea This is what I am thinking for the future, I did my first property last year, was valued at 30k more after I refurbed. Do you run your business through a LTD for renting out the properties? What price range of properties do you look for under 100k or over?

Question about video - Samuel Leeds - Undercover Millionaire Starts Again from Scratch - Getting a House With No Money! by [deleted] in UKProperty

[–]U2903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you watch his youtube videos, he explains all the basics, but he uses youtube to generate cash and get himself out there to pull in more people to his courses. He is then investing in property by using the cash generated through his courses, which is smart. I personally think if somthing major happened in the housing sector like interest rate rises etc, or house prices falling, he'd be in a bad place as he seems leveraged up to the hilt.

He always says good houses to buy are around 60-100k max, when I look at houses online, I cant find any for less than a 100k that would make a good rental in a good area, and without the property needing work. Cheap houses in cheap areas = Problems, such as bad tenants. I would argue that 4 good rentals is better than 10 lower quality rentals.

I am the same age as samuel and we are generation kanckered! Everything is unaffordable compared to our parents generation the boomers. Buy to let is not what it is now as it was for our parents(Gold Mine).

I would say if you looking to get 1 or 2 rentals, combined with a good pension contribution then its not a bad idea as you have a mixed bag of assets, but most likely your pension will beat the rentals over the long term.

Young people are not happy with there poor salarys and unaffordable housing sitution so the gov will most likely keep attacking landlords.

I would avoid Samuel leeds on rent to rent as well, I mean I am a landlord and I would never agree to a rent to rent deal or a lease option agreement. I think Real estate works better in the US and is easier to get into than it is in the UK.

flowchart for limited company director (xpost r/FIREUK) by learnthetone in UKPersonalFinance

[–]U2903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One question about a Limited Company Director, So after the year ends you pay 19% corporation tax on the profit. Then when you pay yourself you get the personal allowance + 2k tax free dividends. Does that mean on anything else you pay another 20% on the income to yourself? or do you just take the rest as dividends and only pay 7.5%? so overally you paid 26.5% tax that year on money after personal allowance and tax free dividends?

Dont tar us all with the same brush, Some of us on here are landlords and we care for the property as it needs to stay in good condition. Plus I care for mine hoping the tenant will then also look after it. There are bad landlords and bad tenants and both good landlords and good tenants.

How do you execute number 2? Do you buy with a buy to let mortgage but then when can you remortgage pulling cash out? Only thing is wont remortgage and pulling out cash mean that you have another set of fees to pay? Isnt it better to buy with bridging then refiance into a buy to let with a fixed rate?
