My wife and i have recently bought an apartment and it has just been let through an agent.
The agents have sent me a letting agreement in my name only.
As my wife only works a few days a month - i imagine it will be more advantageous to have the rental income spilt for tax purposes. ie her half would be taxed at the lower rate.
Am i right in this assumption and should I ask the agents to put the letting agreement in both our names (or does this make any difference)
Thanks in advance
