  • Buying property for children can be a strategic way to secure their financial future. However, it is essential to understand the various methods available, and their associated tax implications.  
     
    Jennifer Adams looks at different methods and tax implications of parents buying property for children. 

  • The rent-a-room scheme allows owner-occupiers and tenants to earn rental income tax-free up to their rent-a-room limit by letting one or more spare rooms in their home. If the rental income received does not exceed the permitted amount, the income does not need to be reported to HMRC.

    Sarah Bradford explains how the rent-a-room scheme can be used to generate tax-free rental income from letting a room in one’s main home. 

  • Without further ado, continuing the case study from part one of this article series, my very basic analysis of Yasmin’s expenditure on the conversion is set out below.

    Lee Sharpe continues his consideration of the tax implications for adapting a property for designation as a house in multiple occupation (HMO).  

  • Capital gains tax (CGT) relief on a disposal of an only or main residence (or principal private residence (PPR) relief, as it is commonly known) is familiar to many taxpayers.

    Mark McLaughlin points out that the sale of part of a dwelling’s garden before the disposal of the dwelling could have unexpected tax consequences.

  • Property partnerships seem popular these days – typically, as a stepping-stone to greater things. Regular readers will know that I have long criticised HMRC’s published position on whether a property partnership exists, as distinct from simply co-owned property. My argument is that HMRC has drawn up its guidance to set an unreasonably high threshold to ‘make the grade’ as a partnership.

    Lee Sharpe looks at whether a joint property letting activity amounts to a partnership, and why it is relevant to landlords.  

  • Most people do not expect to have to pay capital gains tax (CGT) when they sell their home. Private residence relief (also known as main residence relief or principal private residence relief) normally applies in full when the property has been the taxpayer’s only or main residence throughout the whole period for which they have owned it.  

    Sarah Bradford outlines the concept of a ‘main’ residence for capital gains tax purposes. 

  • The government (HMRC) has become increasingly worried about the volume of small and medium-sized enterprise research and development (R&D) tax credit payments where a company claims to have undertaken eligible R&D activity (and it is important to keep in mind that only certain types of R&D may qualify – there are a lot of criteria).

    Lee Sharpe looks at tax aspects of modernising property and the risk of disallowance as improvements that constitute capital expenditure, losing income tax relief in the property business. 

  • Whether to buy commercial or residential property depends on various factors, not least the more beneficial tax system for commercial lets and whether an individual or a company is purchasing the property. The government wishes to encourage commercial lets and therefore permits a more generous tax regime than residential lettings. 

    Jennifer Adams considers some important tax benefits of investing in commercial property.

What our customers say about
Property Tax Insider…
I hold a subscription to the newsletter because as a Landlord having the most up-to-date tax information is important to me and Tax Insider continues to have that. Continued use of my subscription to the Tax Insider magazines has helped me to make some savings which, without the service, I would not have been aware of.
~Raj Rana, Landlord~
I use Property Tax Insider as a medium to understand the various tax migration strategies which are available to me as a property investor, the various articles are useful to help me increase my breadth and understanding of different issues.
~Peter Wilkes, Landlord, Property Investor~
When we purchased the subscription to your newsletter we have previously been told by an unrelated party that Landlord solar panel income is tax-free, an article within the newsletter helped us to quickly understand that it isn’t and helped us to become fully legal and compliant. It has helped with planning for the future hugely.
~Diane Barnard, Landlord~
