Property held in a limited company

The complexities surrounding property investment and management via a limited company can be navigated simply by working alongside the friendly team at Edge Accountants.

Property management is a far from straightforward process at the best of times, so when a limited company becomes involved, it’s perhaps no surprise that the level of complexity demands the attention of experts. However, with recent changes to mortgage tax relief, the number of investors utilising a limited company has grown substantially. At Edge Accountants, we’re delighted to be able to offer the knowledge and expertise to help those looking to follow this path.

Why buy through a limited company?

The main benefit of investing in property via a company is tax efficiency. As a higher rate taxpayer renting out property as an individual, you will face income tax of up to 45%; as a limited company, meanwhile, this is a more palatable 19% of corporation tax. What’s more, opting to run as a limited company brings the benefit of limited liability – your buy-to-let business becomes a separate entity meaning you will not be liable for any losses.
