  • Landlords - Say Goodbye to Claiming Renewals Relief!

    At the beginning of April this year, HMRC published an innocuous sounding document called “Revenue and Customs Brief 5/2013”, which contained “draft revised guidance” on repairs and their treatment for income tax and corporation tax. This could result in a significant number of landlords paying much more in taxes...
  • Property Ownership Transfers: Opportunities and Pitfalls

    As readers who have been with us for some time already know, the capital gains tax (CGT) rules on transferring an asset fall under two separate headings - one set of rules deals with transfers between unmarried persons and the second between persons who are married or in civil partnerships. This article is written as a reminder of the rules but with an added ‘twist’ should the asset transferred be the main residence...
  • All is Not Lost! Relief for Rental Losses

    A property rental business is taxed on its profits. However, not all rental businesses will make a profit. Where the rental business returns a loss, it may be possible to relieve the loss...
  • VAT and Property Purchases: Why Intention is Critical

    This is a story about a client who tussled with a difficult VAT inspector: there are one or two aspects to the case which might hopefully be of interest to others (and perhaps their advisers) in a similar situation...

Do you have two properties that could be your main residence?

If you have two properties that could be your main residence (such as a cottage in the country and a flat in town) it is always a good idea to nominate one of them as your main residence within two years of acquiring the second property - this will give you the flexibility to vary the nomination later.Or are you self employed as well asemployed? Check your PAYE codescarefully - it makes sense to have your taxallowances set against the better paid job,and in addition you may be due a refund of NIC if you have paid more than the annual
maximum.
