Capital Allowances webinar

Speakers Angela Guess and Jake Iles

The Government demands to recover taxes to offset UK national debt is now incessant.  We have seen from the Autumn Statement that it is happy to systematically change legislation across all of its legitimate revenue areas too impacting the Residential market. 

However, the commercial property market still has one of the most legitimate and preferential tax reliefs available to it in the form Capital Allowances. Many myths surround the topic which can make life challenging for accountants, solicitors, and surveyors.  This mythology often leads to confusion for the property owning client who, if not properly advised, can miss out on the opportunity to claim valuable tax relief both now and in the future. 

We’ll look at a general overview of what it’s all about and how the pitfalls can be avoided for the owner and advisor alike.

Within this webinar, we'll cover:

  • What Capital Allowances are and why they are valuable
  • What they should mean to the advisors
  • How you can claim and when
  • What it means even if you or your company have owned a property for many years
  • What to consider when you are Selling or Buying?
    • The 4 most likely outcomes
    • Risks to Sellers and Buyers
  • How to deal with Capital Allowances documentation to ensure you have a chance to claim
    • Surveyor: Heads of Terms
    • Solicitor: Contract, CPSE, Joint Election, Schedules
    • Accountant: Accounts, Tax Return, Ledgers etc
