I know all about what is allowable against the profit made when selling an investment property, except I've been doing the viewings myself for the past 6 weeks and travelling to/from to do them. Is the mileage allowable?
 
Only "Capital Costs" can be set against Capital Gains - travel is a "Revenue" cost, and can be set against income, e.g. rental income.
 
AFAIK only the actual cost of the fuel can be offset. In order to get mileage you have to be an employee. As the owner of an investment property you are self empoyed in relation to the property.
