The vast majority of development over the last ten years has been profitable through remediation tax. If this is removed the margins will be shattered. Even if your not in the remediation scheme the influence it has on the market as a whole can and will effect you going forward.
Student lets, (proper ones not slums), look a good bet imo. Similarly key worker accomodation. And not talking about turing a b ig house into 6 apartments either. There is alot of stuff on internet about future demand and political chat about incentives and securities. |

the changes in CG tax mean i will manipulate as much as i can by saying i live whereever i can to be tax exempt. you can have 3 goes a year apparently... anyway, hopefully, i have a mate with bigger plans, if they take off i won't need to wrry about that. |

The CG tax. My understanding is as yours with the addition of one slight rule. You cannot be making these moves soley for the purpose of avoiding tax. This interpretation of the tax laws is being used more and more often as it is the only stick the IR have when fighting against top tax lawyers. Something else to plan for :-(

all those poor youngster will inherit their parent's fortune before too long so dont fret for them too much. Ibrahima Sonko 24 Jan 22:03 But you will probably be over 60 when the parents do pass away and then the tax man will probably steal some of it. Today's 25-35 years old's are the first generation that will be worse off in life than their parents ( in general terms) What is the level on inheritance tax in the UK and at what what level do people have to pay it. Imagine a scenario where someone inherits their parents house, can't pay the tax but can't sell in a dead housing market. |

if someone gets given 400k for free they only have to pay 40k IHT. If they can't get equity release then there is something very wrong.
And who really lives in the house they inherit from their parents? It would have to be an only child, whoo didn't buy their own house when they were young. Most people don't see both parents dies until they hit their 60's thses days. That arguement is the bu11shyte the rich put up and ordinary people buy it. Only 3% of estates pay any IHT. |

By:
Perhaps IHT should be increased and the money spent on affordable housing for those who cant get on the property ladder. THen those that made money by doing nothing more than riding a property boom can actually give something back.
