Mortgage Payments against rental propery
Hi There, Please could you advise if I need to enter my mortgage payments onto my self assessment for my rental property or are they completely irrelvant? I seem to be seeing contradictory advice when I search for it. Please could you advise? I know its not an expense anymore but can I claim anything and do I need to enter anything on my assessment for it? Thank you -

Rental Property and a little selling from home
Good Afternoon, This year I will be needing to log a Self assessment for the first time for a rental property, I understand there is a £1,000 threshhold before Tax is paid, that all makes sense. I have also sold a few bits online on ebay that toals about £200 so far... would that £200 need to be delcared on the self assessment also or is it only if sales are over £1000 that I would need to do this? I hope that makes sense. Thank you. -
Paying Parent to maintain garden on rental property.
Hi There, Please could anyone help, I am renting out my house, I have a tenant in and paying rent, everything is good. I have promised to maintain the garden because it can get out of hand quickly, I want to pay my mum who used to be gardener £100 every 3 months to go and maintain this. My issue is, how can I put that through as an expense correctly? She isnt a business and is just doing it for pocket money, I will be paying her but there will be no receipt as such. She doesnt work and is retired so she wont need to declare £400 over the year as that is all she is earning so is under the £1000 she can earn. Is this acceptable and how can I prove I've paid her so I can put it down as an expense correctly? Thank you
