  • Help - repairs classified as too high relative to rental income

    Apologies for what might be a stupid question but I am relatively new to self assessment and find the whole thing slightly scary. As I completing my tax return, I have received an alert stating that my repair costs are too high relative to the rent I have received. I have invoices and proof of payment for roof repairs and two walls which required treatment for damp. This amounted to about half my rental income. I can prove I have undertaken the work with invoices and bank statements? Is there anything else I need to do? Thank you to anyone who is able to respond.
