Tax
at up to 40% and VAT at up to 20% are significant
costs to any building project or property
transaction. However, valuable savings can
be made if the project qualifies for any
of the various tax breaks offered in the
UK tax legislation.
Landmark PT, an independent tax consultancy
run by Julian Potts, ensures that property
owners enjoy full entitlement to these savings.
Julian is a member of the Institute of Indirect
Taxation, the Associaton of Taxation Technicians
and is a Chartered Surveyor.
Opportunities include:
VAT savings for works to
residential, charitable and commercial buildings
Tax savings in the form
of capital allowances for commercial property
occupiers and investors
Each tax relief has a host of conditions
attached which need to be satisfied and evidenced
in a form acceptable to HM Revenue
& Customs. We have developed specialist expertise,
procedures and documentation to meet these
requirements whilst keeping fees competitive.
Landmark PT will:
- plan the tax or VAT position from the
earliest stages of any project
- use in depth technical knowledge and
experience of the property industry to
remove the risk, uncertainty and speculation
that often surround complex, time critical
property tax issues
- work rigorously to ensure we understand
the project in detail as the smallest
factors may make a huge difference in
terms of tax saved
- be available to explain tax issues to
clients, building contractors and consultants
- provide detailed and fully supported
cost apportionments by combining our
in house quantity surveying skills with
a detailed understanding of the requirements
of the tax legislation
- keep up to date with the latest developments
in property taxation by actively contributing
to the VAT Practitioner's Group, the
VAT committee of the British Property
Federation and the RICS tax policy panel
