Family Buy-To-Let

Options
Been sent a link to a family buy to let product from The Mansfield building society.
Anyone have any ideas how, if you're not making any actual profit, owning a second property "rented" to a family member affects your tax liability for that property?

Could be a real problem solver for us and my mum.

Thanks in Advance!

    Why won't you make any profit?

    Will the allowable expenses exceed the rental income?

    I would think you just have a loss each year which you can only set off against similar income. CGT would apply when you sell.
