Property as a long-term investment, can come with complex tax rules that can easily eat away at your income or capital value if not managed correctly. At aventae, we help individuals, landlords, property developers and businesses navigate the rules, structure their property ownership effectively, and minimise exposure to unnecessary taxes.
Why specialist property tax planning matters
UK property taxation is wide-ranging and ever-changing. From the acquisition of the property through to disposal, every stage brings its own set of considerations:
Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), or Land Transaction Tax (LTT) on purchase
Income Tax on rental profits, including restrictions on mortgage interest relief
Corporation Tax for property development companies, including extracting profits
Corporation Tax for family investment companies and how to minimise it
Capital Gains Tax (CGT) when selling property, including reporting within 60 days
Inheritance Tax planning for property within your estate
VAT on property where relevant
Structuring ownership through individuals, partnerships, companies or trusts
