£885 Per Property: The New National Insurance Hit on Landlords
We cut through the noise to explain what this really means for landlords and investors, and the tough choices it raises: absorb it, pass it on, or sell up?
This episode of The Investor’s Corner Podcast takes aim at the government’s latest tax grab. Landlords could soon be paying National Insurance on rental income, with average costs of £885 per property in London and £722 elsewhere. This change could reshape the buy-to-let landscape.
