Expenses generally allowable include:

  • Letting agent's fees and commissions

  • Certain legal expenses
  • Interest on a loan to buy the property
  • Buildings and contents insurance
  • Repairs and maintenance
  • Gas, electricity and water rates if not paid by the tenant
  • Council Tax if not paid by the tenant and when the property is not let
  • Ground rents and service charges
  • Cleaning expenses
  • Payments to employees to manage the property
  • Wear and tear allowance - for furnished properties
