Property & Real Estate Accounting FAQs
Is property development taxed differently from property investment?
Yes. Property investment profits are subject to CGT on disposal, while property development (trading) profits are subject to income tax or Corporation Tax. The distinction depends on the nature and frequency of your activities.
Should I use a company for my property business?
Since Section 24 restricted mortgage interest relief for individuals, companies can be more tax-efficient for leveraged property investment. However, the decision depends on your long-term plans, financing, and personal tax position.
What SDLT reliefs are available for property purchases?
Reliefs include first-time buyer relief, multiple dwellings relief (being reformed), and various exemptions. The 3% surcharge applies to additional residential properties. Non-UK residents pay an additional 2% surcharge.
