Here goes and I'm dreading the reply.
I bought my Grandma's house in 1990. It was an ex council house which she bought for £15,000 with me as the guarantaur. She died 2-3 years later and left me the house in her will. I have been paying the 15 year mortgage for £15,000 the whole term. For the last 10 years I have rented the property to the DHSS and get £300 a month. I was always lead to believe it didn't make enough to declare tax. I have thought about selling the house in 6 months time as I think it's value is now around £70,000. For the first time in my working PAYE life I have received a 2002-2003 tax return and have no idea what to do next.
Do I need to put it down with rent only £3600 pa?
If I sell I am liable for ££££££'s as I'm in a higher tax bracket?
Why have I suddenly got a tax return?
Is it worth selling the property to my wife as she works part time and earns £7000 a year?
Thanks
