Summary

In this episode, Kevin busts some of the most common serviced accommodation myths. He helps you to better understand what can and cannot be done by SA business owners. Ensuring that nobody gets needlessly stuck or suffers unnecessary expense as a result of misinformation. He speaks about rates, planning classes, property standards classification, purchasing as a Ltd company and why you would not sign an ASD when taking a property off of an owner. KEY TAKEAWAYS From a planning point of view, the appropriate use class for most serviced accommodation models is C3. For most SA landlords, going onto business rates is not something to worry about. Kevin explains why in the podcast. Serviced accommodation, which should definitely not be someone´s permanent home, is not covered by the housing act. If an agent is belligerently telling your property needs to be treated as an HMO use the housing officer to provide them with concrete proof that it is not. Kevin explains exactly how in the podcast. No business use clauses in leases do not always preclude your using a building for SA. All SA properties need to be bought as a Ltd company is a myth – Kevin explains why, including the potential tax benefits, in the episode.
