I'm not sure whether this should be in let off steam, if so, clubman might oblige..........
We've been approved in principle for a release of equity in our ppr and purchase of our first investment property. I'm completely shocked at the amount of "experts" who have crawled out of the woodwork. The overwhelming message from them seems to be that we should somehow evade the Revenue Commisioners and not pay any tax on the rental income from the property at all.
Needless to say, having never operated in a grey economy, this is something I don't intend to do in any circumstances, I'm well aware of the consequences of these actions.
Has anybody come up against these "experts", who might I add have their own investment properties and are clearly getting away with it? I always thought that asking others in similar situations for their advice and experience was a good idea, but i'm seriously beginning to regret opening my trap!
