I had a huge expense for repairs in May and am now selling the property so only had a short tax year of April-August. My tax return for 23-24 is calculated as being about £1700 but obviously in 24-25 it's going to be zero as a huge loss (£6000 repair bill, only 5 months rental income etc) Is there any way to do a set of accounts/return that includes the whole 17 months; or to somehow put the loss of 24-25 into the 23-24 return to offset the tax bill? Or do I wait until next April and a refund will be possible?
