If he sells that one property now, he will be roughly £32,000 out of pocket – although he will save himself £1,600 a year of increased tax cost, indefinitely. But if he can afford to suffer the additional tax cost of finance, and he believes that the property will ultimately claw back the value lost in the last few years, then he could be better off biding his time

What it will ultimately create is more pensions to be funded. Employing council staff to manage private rentals isn't a sensible idea. (Manage they will, to fill plenty of officer hours) What councils need is more environmental enforcement officers trained to deal with substandard housing. And to enforce action against bad landlords. The initial scheme in Manchester's Moston and Lightbowne folded. FOI would reveal the scale of damage to council tax payers and the huge waste of time it was. If you want landlords to improve properties, then ensure there ar systems to force them - and there currently are - but by EH not a new branch of the council. And if you want neighbour nuisance dealt with then you need to actually learn how to change people. Councils just evict bad tenants. Do they expect more from private landlords?

"The blacklist, however, will only be accessible to local and central government – not to members of the public using letting agents, and not to employers or recruitment companies in the sector." So pointless.

So how much tax would you pay on that?

But in theory this is what UC is for. To instantly fill in the lulls in ZHC.

No But now someone might ask why the self-employed get such a good pension without paying for it.
