Why do I need planning?
In recent years growing property prices coupled with the popularity of investing in buy to let properties and / or acquiring a holiday home, perhaps overseas, have brought more and more people within the potential scope of Inheritance Tax (IHT).
In many cases people may not even be aware that their Estate will be liable to IHT after their demise. This could dramatically reduce the amount of wealth they thought would be available to pass to their intended beneficiaries.
No matter whether you are in business and / or have investments such as shares or rental properties, whether you are or are not nearing retirement or simply own your private residence, “now” has never been a better time to review your overall position. Most of the time, the simplest solutions prove to be the most effective.
With timely planning the potential liability can be greatly reduced or completely mitigated.
