"Buy-to-let" is the most well-known form of property investment, and is simply the process of buying a property with the express intention of letting it out to residential tenants. The property can be purchased in full or purchased using a buy-to-let mortgage, either personally or via a limited company.
The ownership structure of the buy-to-let property determines tax considerations. Buy-to-let properties are broadly either owned personally or via a limited company, and each ownership structure is subject to different tax rules.
From April 2021, mortgage interest relief is no longer available for personally owned buy-to-let property, meaning that many investors will experience higher tax bills. Appointing a specialist property accountant, like Provestor, will help you navigate tax legislation and approaches including partnerships, deeds of trust and incorporation.
Many investors are now using limited companies to purchase buy-to-let properties, as mortgage interest relief is still available. Over 50% of buy-to-let mortgage applications are now being made via property investment companies. Whilst the compliance burden is higher compared to a personally owned property (as company accounts must be prepared each year), specialist accountants such as Provestor make this process straightforward.
Wondering if a limited company is right for your property investment goals? Get the answers you need from a property tax expert in our limited company tax consultation.
Buying properties through a company is well-established and a straightforward process. If, however, you are looking to incorporate an existing portfolio of personally owned properties, the process is more complex, but we are able to help you understand the business case for doing so.
With any buy-to-let property, regardless of ownership structure, effective management and treatment of outgoings is imperative as this can impact both the tax you pay on rental income, and also tax on any gains should you sell the property and inheritance tax should you pass the property on in your estate.
