Preview — what you'll get
What happens when landlords exit without a plan
CGT rate for higher-rate taxpayers on residential gains — many landlords significantly underestimate this
Lost through bad timing — tenancy status, protected periods, and tax year misalignment compound together
Missed in allowable deductions — improvement costs, legal fees on purchase, SDLT, and enhancement works
CGT is due on completion — no time to plan once you have accepted an offer and contracts are exchanged
Figures are illustrative. This planner gives you a working estimate — not financial advice. Verify all figures with a qualified advisor before proceeding.
