There are various tax implications associated with property letting:
- Income Tax on the rental income
- Capital Gains Tax on the gain arising from sale of the property
- Inheritance Tax
- Stamp Duty
- Corporation Tax if the properties are held in a company.
Just some of the questions to ask before and during the rental process:
- Should you own the properties personally or through a company?
- Has the property been, or likely to be your main residence?
- What expenses can you claim against rental income?
- What reliefs are available against Capital Gains Tax?
We can advise at any stage, and help with completion of your tax return and calculation of the tax liability.
