Show Notes
What should you do if the council thinks your serviced accommodation breaches planning? And is it worth moving a buy-to-let you already own into a company?
It's Tuesday, so it's time for another episode of Ask Rob & Rob.
(00:36) Johnny turned his first buy-to-let into serviced accommodation in May, then got a letter from Leeds City Council about a possible planning breach. Should he put in a retrospective application? Rob D explains who to speak to before doing anything else, and the fallback if it doesn't go his way.
(04:35) Warren has started letting out his two-bed flat in Chester, which he holds in his personal name. Should he transfer ownership to a limited company? Rob B explains what the switch would cost, and how long it could take to earn that money back.
