Landlords Energy Saving Allowance
Date: 02/11/2009
If you are a landlord and make energy saving improvements to your property, you could reduce the tax you pay. You can do this by claiming the ‘Landlord’s Energy Saving Allowance’ (LESA).
The LESA is a tax allowance (not a cash payment) that allows you to claim up to £1,500 against tax every year. This allowance can be claimed for properties you rent out in the UK and abroad. You can claim LESA for the costs of buying and installing certain energy saving products for properties you rent out, but only for what you actually spend.
You claim LESA for: Cavity wall and loft insulation, solid wall insulation, draught proofing and hot water system insulation and floor insulation.
You can claim Landlords Energy Saving Allowance up to 1st April 2015.
You can claim a maximum allowance of £1,500 for each house, flat or bed-sit you rent out.
To discuss this or any other issue regarding letting your property, please call CLIFFTONS and we will happily offer our advice and can discuss the options available to you.
