Property Tax is a significant consideration for homeowners and property owners in the UK. Depending on the kind of property, there are variety of taxes that need consideration. The main types of taxes one may encounter are Council Tax, Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), Capital Gains Tax, and Inheritance Tax. Visit HMRC website or read our blogs for more information.
Capital Gains Tax (CGT) may apply when you sell an inherited property if it has appreciated in value since the date it was inherited. The gain is calculated from the date of inheritance to the date of sale, with tax only due on the profit above the annual CGT allowance.
Owning a second property often involves additional taxes, such as higher Stamp Duty rates on purchase and potentially CGT on sale. The rental income from a second property is also subject to Income Tax. Accurate reporting of all income and capital gains is essential to remain compliant and manage tax obligations effectively.
