Land & property

Aerial view of land and property

The guides here answer all your FAQ on running a property business as a landlord, whether as an individual or via a company. Capital Gains Tax (CGT) on disposing of property is mainly in our Private Client CGT section. Moving property around groups of companies is dealt with in the Companies section and also in Company Reoganisations.
