Show Notes

Shaz goes through when capital allowances can be claimed and when they can’t. He uses a specific example of serviced accommodation and looks at how you can minimise your potential exposure both now and in the future in this informative episode

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Serviced accommodation units have an annual investment allowance, you can claim all of the capital allowances up to a certain amount at one time
  • If you sell and there’s a loss you get a 19% tax saving on the loss, called a balancing allowance
  • You need to be careful about the amount you claim on capital allowances
  • If you are going to keep the business for a number of years claim the annual investment allowance upfront
  • When it reverts to buy to let there are no capital allowances 

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you sell, if the person buying is quite savvy, they will ask what you have and haven’t claimed’

‘Don’t claim capital allowances too quickly if you are intending to sell’
