An inventory of contents should be prepared to include service readings. We can arrange for this to be done, the charge depends on the size of property and amount of contents.

Future rents are paid direct to Landlord. In the event of non payment of rent we should be contacted so we may follow up any arrears with the tenant.

INCOME TAX
Where a Landlord is classed as resident abroad for tax purposes, we are assessed as managing agents under the 1970 Taxes Management Act on rental income received. Therefore we must retain funds to meet this liability. It is possible for a Landlord to offset various expenses and outgoings in respect of his property against his income tax liability. Such items include mortgage interest payable and fair wear and tear of furnishing and decorations, etc. We will release full funds where we hold an indemnity, or alternatively the landlord has been accepted under the non-resident landlords scheme by the Inland Revenue which came into force on the 6thApril 1996
