Employ partner as Property Management Agent to have expense deductible

My property is joint tenant with my partner. Instead of hiring property agents, I hire my partner to manage our property and charged at the market rate. That will be the main job of my partner and she will pay income tax herself as self-employed of course. Is this Full Service Management Fee deductible just in the same way as hiring from outside?

Hi abbeysea chan,
Thank you for your question.
HMRC do not get involved with who a customer decides to employ/hire as their property Agents.
Expenses for management fees are deductible.
Please refer to:
PIM2210 - Deductions: main types of expense: salaries and wages of employees
Thank you.
