Helping you quickly establish tax planning opportunities and potential pitfalls.

The book is divided into the four categories of property ownership: property investors; property dealers and developers; trading premises; and private residences. Within each category all relevant tax planning areas are outlined chapter by chapter, with reference to legislation and case law.

Updated in line with Finance Act 2018:

  • New SDLT relief for first-time buyers
  • Income received by non-UK resident companies from UK property rentals will be chargeable to corporation tax, rather than income tax, from April 2020
  • Non-resident capital gains on any immovable property subject to tax from April 2019.
Also includes the following:

  • Changes to substantial shareholding exemption (F(No 2)A 2017, ss26-28)
  • Carry forward loss rules/changes to group relief (F(No 2)A 2017, s18 and Sch4)
  • Effective replacement of worldwide debt cap with the Corporate Interest Restriction rules from 1 April 2017 (F(No 2)A 2017, s20 and Sch 5)
  • Commentary on the Hybrid Rules that can prevent tax deductions for financing costs
  • Changes to trading in land and transactions in land, based on changes introduced in March and July 2016
  • New section on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS)
