Overseas Property Investors Buying In The UK – What You Need To Know

28th January 2020 by Gresham Street Partners

Overseas Property Investors Buying In The UK – What You Need To Know

Do you know anyone who lives outside the UK who is intending on buying property (properties) in the UK? If so, they need to contact Gresham Street Partners – pronto!

We help overseas property investors mitigate their taxes and avoid additional surplus charges.

Apart from the fact that Boris Johnson is intending to introduce an additional 3% stamp duty penalty for overseas buyers (presumably it will come in this year’s impending budget), the buyer needs to consider HOW they will buy their property.

We can show them how to mitigate virtually every single tax: income tax, corporation tax, the additional stamp duty charge, ATED and inheritance tax. Of course, it goes without saying, we can also help reduce their capital gains tax as well.

However, we can only help the buyer mitigate these taxes before they have purchased the property. Please pass this information on to all professionals who deal with overseas buyers, Non- Res, Expats, Foreign investors – they need us – why wouldn’t you?

Contact our friendly team today for more information – https://www.greshamstreet.com/contact-us/

How Can Buy To Let Landlords Save Income Tax & Capital Gains Tax In 2020?

25th January 2020 by Gresham Street Partners

How Can Buy To Let Landlords Save Income Tax & Capital Gains Tax In 2020?

Thank God it didn’t happen – No Corbyn!! Do you remember my doom-laden words before the election? Thank heavens it didn’t come to pass. For buy-to-let landlords, the election results mean no Capital Gain Tax increases and no apparent inheritance tax increase either. It also means that there is no likelihood of an increase in Income Tax. Enthusiasm is back in the property market!

There is considerable talk about interest rates coming down – at least corporation tax is not going to be hiked up by the Labour lefties. It doesn’t look like mortgage rates will be going up significantly in the near future either. Sellers are now coming back to the marketplace.

Our buy to let restructuring platform is as robust as ever. To celebrate this we have reduced our fees significantly. Not only have our fees been reduced but we are also offering a free consultation and a unique tax analysis summary of your current and future liabilities and benefits.

If you currently suffering from high-income tax on your rented properties and want to get out of paying personal income tax then please get in contact. We restructure your properties so that you only pay minuscule corporation tax on your rental income – which allows you to offset your entire mortgage costs as a deductible expense!

And, if you want to seriously mitigate your existing capital gains tax liability, then come and get a free consultancy and a bespoke tax analysis report on how to turn your property retirement platform into a highly tax-efficient, lucrative business.

Our specialist consultant, Christopher Coleridge Cole,  has many years of experience in re-structuring landlords’ property investments. He will be able to advise you on the best solution on whether or not to have your buy-to-let business as a sole trader or a limited company whilst ensuring to put you in touch with a professional tax advisor before making this decision.

How Will Brexit Affect The Buy To Let Property Market?

16th October 2019 by Gresham Street Partners

How Will Brexit Affect The Buy To Let Property Market?

Brexit has already had a significant effect on the Buy-to-Let (BTL) property market. The uncertainty has impacted both valuations & the overall enthusiasm of potential investors. George Osborne, before he was unceremoniously kicked out, had already decided to hammer the tax relief for landlords and effectively destroy the BTL retirement industry. Why he took it on himself to ruin the retirement prospect for landlords only he can say.

I believe that a positive outcome to Brexit will undoubtedly benefit existing BTL landlords and new purchasers coming into the market. Britain still has unbelievably low-interest rates, lenders have clearly come to embrace the new ethos of BTL property through a company without seriously impacting mortgage interest rates. Falling tax relief for landlords now becomes tax relief for corporates; given that you can offset all mortgage interest and relative costs against your rental income, landlords will be hugely more prosperous than previously – Stuff Osborne!

Bad News For BTL Landlords

However, that’s the good news – now for the bad news. Brexit has so undermined the confidence of the British public that the likelihood of a Conservative government being re-elected or frankly staying in power for a length of time, is historically deeply unlikely. Much as people may not like the idea of a Marxist fascist such as Corbyn or McDonnell running their country, even if there is a hung parliament, Labour would be arguing justifiably that their leader would become Prime Minister. And therein lies the serious problems for property landlords.

Everyone who reads the papers knows Labour has made it perfectly plain their intention to raise the top-rate tax. It’s certainly likely to go to 50-60% – I remember when it was 82% so don’t be alarmed, it’s highly likely to be 60%. In addition, both Corbyn and McDonnell have earmarked capital gains tax increase, probably being doubled to 56% for 2nd property owners. Stamp duty bad as it is right now is also likely to be vulnerable.

Brexit – What To Do Next As A BTL Landlord

There is a solution to this Armageddon. You haven’t got to be a member of Mensa to realise you need to act now!! Speak to those who know how to pre-empt this potential horror-show before it is too late. Do not put your head in the sand, do not think it will not happen – if Labour gets in I can guarantee most of this will happen. Speak to Gresham Street partners.
