Are UK landlords officially "Enemy Number One"?

With a relentless barrage of legislative and tax attacks from HMRC—including the eradication of the 10% wear-and-tear allowance, the punishing Section 24 mortgage interest relief cap, and the death of furnished holiday letting schemes—it feels like the UK government is doing everything it can to break property investors.

In this eye-opening, unfiltered episode, international tax specialist Simon Misiewicz exposes the staggering contrast between the UK and US property markets. If you are sick of being squeezed dry by a system that treats your investment like a cash cow, it’s time to look across the pond. Discover how the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) actually incentivizes landlords and developers, while HMRC punishes them. Simon reveals why an absolute mass exodus of British capital is brewing, and how investors are successfully shifting their strategies to high-yield, pro-landlord regions.

In this episode, we break down the ultimate US vs. UK tax playbook:

• Bypassing Section 24 Entirely: Learn how individual real estate investors in the United States are legally permitted to offset 100% of their mortgage interest costs directly against their rental income.
• The Magic of US Depreciation: Discover the built-in tax shield that allows US property owners to offset their rental profits using a standard 27.5 or 30-year property depreciation deduction.
• Accelerated Wealth via Cost Segregation: The secret weapon that allows you to bring in specialized surveyors to map out your property's non-bricks-and-mortar features, dramatically accelerating your upfront tax write-offs.
• The 1031 Exchange (The Ultimate Tax Deferral): How US law allows you to sell an asset, roll 100% of your capital gains directly into the next property, and completely defer your capital gains tax.
• The Pro-Landlord Legal Shield: Why certain US states allow you to legally evict and prosecute non-paying tenants in as little as a single week, completely eliminating the multi-month legal nightmares forced upon UK landlords.
• The Disney & Florida Strategy: Exactly how British investors are setting up clean US corporate structures to target high-ROI vacation and residential properties in sunny, high-demand areas.
