BATH LANDLORDS OFFERED SPECIALIST ADVICE ON CUTTING COSTS

May 23, 2016

The National Landlords Association (NLA) invites landlords in Bath and the surrounding areas to a forum on Wednesday afternoon, 1 June, to hear from property experts about the best ways to save on costs. 

OneE Group will offer advice around tax compliance and provide an important update on the recent changes to taxation of buy-to-let properties, as announced in recent Budgets.

The meeting will also include presentations on a variety of topics, including:

  • Major new legislation impacting the PRS in 2016-17
  • Prevention of mould and blackspot
  • Sourcing appropriate household appliances at the right price

Ken Staunton, Head of Regions at the NLA, said:

“The private rented sector (PRS) is already undergoing many changes, particularly with regard to taxation. Return on investment is affected by so many factors, including tax, maintenance costs, equipment costs and achievable rent levels.

“Meetings such as these provide an excellent resource to keep landlords informed and updated about what is happening in the PRS, with specialist tips and advice to maximise return on investment on their lettings activities.”

All local landlords are invited, free of charge, to the Kingswood Pavilion, Lansdown Road, Bath, BA1 9BH.

Registration is from 1.30p.m for the 2:00 p.m. start, and closes at 4.15p.m.

Anyone wishing to attend should book in advance via the NLA website.
