UK Property Tax Q&ACan I offset interest repayments when borrowing money from a relative?Can I offset interest repayments when borrowing money from a relative?
Question
I intend to borrow 40k from my father to help fund the purchase of a BTL property. I intend to pay him a fixed interest rate of approx. 6 %. Is this interest allowable against rental income and what documentation may the revenue require? Ian Says: The interest is allowable against the rental income. Your father would have to report the interest on his Tax Return and pay interest on it. A simple loan agreement between you would be sufficient evidence together with a clear record of the amount being transferred into your account from his and clear records of the interest being paid. For the avoidance of doubt, set up a standing order for the interest payments and ensure the agreement states the terms of the loan and the repayment date or terms for repayment of the capital.
