    For what purpose are you currently renovating?

    You said in the event you rent it out, which suggests you might not, now you are saying it will be rented out.
  • It needed ne windows and a kitchen, I am unsure if I will rent or sell, sorry for the vagaries

    I wouldn't say you could consider that as an expenses when if you do come to rent then because it isn't for the purpose of getting it ready to rent.

    It is at this time, but when completed I intend to move in with OH , then becomes a let property

    redecorating etc prior to letting would probably count as an allowable expense against renting income; improvements are capital
