As someone who has a liability for both of the above, can someone clarify;
-whether the NPPR and Household charges are both technically the same thing? i.e. both are payable to/collectable by the local authority
-if they are not, what are the differences in what the money is used for?
-whether the NPPR will be abolished once the 'full' and 'fair' Property tax is introduced?
-whether the household charge or full property tax is a deductable expense for landlords-it seems unfair that you would not be able to do so if its an expense that cannot be incorporated into the rent as a monthly addendum. i.e. current rent say, €1000, new rent €1000 plus 1/12 of any tax on services provided by the local authority and enjoyed by the tenant.
From where I stand the reduction in allowable interest to just 75% plus the imposition of both charges which could not be passed on to tenants is unfair and discriminates against a section of the public who cannot avoi/reduce or minimise impact of these measures.
Sorry if this is dealt with elsewhere. Mods please move to correct thread if it has been.
