Summary

Happy Tuesday! Rob & Rob are back to help two more listeners with their property dilemmas… (0:40) With five buy-to-let properties under his belt, Ryan’s considering leveraging his portfolio further. Unsure of the best strategy in the current market and £180K to invest, he turns to Rob & Rob for their expert advice. (3:42) Lisa’s an expat in Abu Dhabi, who owns two properties back home and is eyeing a third. While researching management agencies, she came across a non-resident tax regulation, which mentions deductions from rental income - something she didn’t know about. Now she’s asking if Rob & Rob can shed some light on whether this applies to her. Enjoy the show? Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it really helps others find us!
