Rent(出租)a room

Spare room? Not only will a lodger (房客) earn you some money but also thanks to the government-backed “rent a room” program you won’t have to pay any tax (税) on the first ￡4 500 you make per year. Try advertising your room on Roomspare or Roommateeasy.

Make money during special events

Don’t want a full-time lodger? Then rent on a short-term basis (基础). If you live in the capital renting a room out during the Olympics or other big events could bring in money. Grashpadder can advertise your space.

Use your roof (屋顶)

You need the right kind of roof but some energy companies pay the cost of fixing solar equipment (around￡14 000) and let you use the energy produced for nothing. In return they get paid for unused energy fed back into the National Grid. However you have to sign a 25-year agreement with the supplier (供应商) which could prevent you from changing the roof.
