Did You Know?

Any assets you purchase for your company currently receive an enhanced 130% tax relief. This is particularly relevant for construction companies, purchasing plant and machinery. If you purchase machinery for say £200,000, you receive tax relief on £260,000. This gives a tax saving of £49,400, which is £11,400 more than would normally be available! This is only available until 31 March 2022 though.
Research and development (R&D) tax credits are available across the whole of the property & construction sector. An example of this would be architecture and design. Architects and designers frequently use the latest technology to solve scientific or technological problems. Any costs associated with this can qualify for a 230% tax deduction. For a business spending £200,000, a physical tax saving of £87,400 is available!
Estate agents operating a client money account for their letting clients are required to have an audit of their client money account transactions each year to ensure they’re acting in the interests of their clients.
If a company owns residential property with a value over £500,000, then it must complete an annual ATED (annual tax on enveloped dwellings) return. There are many exemptions in place that remove the associated ATED liability, but a return is still required nonetheless. There are significant penalties for companies who don’t submit their annual return.
