Many people own properties that are let out and held as investments. These properties can generate an income and hopefully a capital gain on the eventual disposal.

This tax book looks at tax planning for income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax for anyone holding property investments.

As well as looking at making full use of all available deductions and reliefs we also look at the tax structuring opportunities you can use to reduce taxes including using a company or trust.

In many cases, by undertaking some simple tax planning you can save thousands in taxes. Key reliefs such as PPR relief and Lettings Relief for instance can be structured to eliminate capital gains tax completely in many cases.
