Nice video. A big benefit for me of owning property through a limited company is being able to add my daughters (currently 12 and 10) as company directors. When I die they can continue to reap the benefits of the portfolio without having to pay inheritance tax.
I'm a 40% tax payer and right from the beginning I set up my LTD company. 1. for tax reasons, 2. because I wanted the risk to be on the company and not me. 3. I see it a tax free investment vehicle. I provide the equity in the form of a directors loan and then when the business turns a profit i'll begin returning my loan to myself. Once I'm ready to buy again i'll start the whole process again. My intention is to keep adding as many as possible during my life. Currently have two properties, about to add a third
I’m an aspiring house flipper, haven’t started a portfolio yet as I’m still getting my head around a few things. I’m going to be setting up a Ltd Co as a side business purely for, and as you mentioned in the video, for protection. I’m an electrician full time so I’ll be doing a lot of the work myself, and any profit made will be staying in the company accounts as I can live off my full time wage 👍🏼
Why not consider transferring the corporate profits to a SIPP or a SSAS pension to provide for your retirement and to reduce therefore the declared earnings legitimately and so pay less Corporation Tax? The limit is now £60,000 that can be thus transferred pee annum now, before you start to consider using past unused allowances.
Good luck mate - I’d love my son to take up a trade such as being an electrician/joiner… if you get the correct properties your ability to make a bigger profit from flipping if you have the skills to do much of the remodeling is enormous compared to someone like me who has to employ tradesmen. My portfolio is in a Ltd company and it will eventually be my pension. All the best on your property journey fella
The reason for the introduction of Section 24 was that it levelled the playing field between property investors and house buyers who were bidding on the same houses. Investors had the advantage of having their mortgage interest payments subsidised by having tax relief, whereas the ordinary buyer did not.
‘Levelled the playing field’? You clearly don’t know what you’re on about. It’s a bit like saying, a company should not be able to deduct interest costs associated with the loans used for the purchase of vehicles that are required to undertake business activity, as private individuals aren’t able to do the same on interest they pay towards vehicle finance where the car is utilised for personal use!
@@ruhaluddin I know EXACTLY what I wrote, thank you very much! Do I agree with the change? No. Perhaps, individuals buying their own homes should be able to offset the mortgage interest expense? We had something like that under MIRAS. However, it was abolished as too expensive and people did not need to be incentivised to buy property anyway. The next, obvious, step is to stop limited companies being able to deduct the financing interest on property purchases...
@ruhaluddin Actually, it DID level the playing field! You and I might object to it, but it did what it was meant to, ie remove the advantage that property investors had over first time buyers looking for somewhere to love for themselves.

My husband is only on £23,000 a year so we have been advised by our property accountant to do it in our own name. It’s good to see that you mention the lower tax earners and doing it in our name, whereas most other property investors are saying do a Ltd company etc etc.
If he makes 6k average a year in rental income, that will boost his income to 29,000. Eventually if you are buying more and more, you will cross the 50k threshold
Excellent! The only issue is that should you sell any held in your own name, any holding gain would be subject to Capital Gains Tax. Whereas, if you sold a property for gain in a limited company, it would be subjected to Corporation Tax instead. Then this could be reduced with a personal pension contribution, pretty easy to achieve now that the limit is £60,000pa!! Frankly, you should probably aim to buy in your own name properties that you will hold forever and never sell, that way avoiding CGT. You could always extract the equity by remortgaging every decade or more often.
I currently have 2 btl in personal name. Trying to decide how I go from here. I’m a sole trader for my day job and thinking of going ltd for day job and keep buying in personal name. Main reasons are cheaper mortgages and cheaper accountancy fees. I would then just restrict the amount of money I pay myself from ltd Co day job and use the rental money as wages keeping myself below higher rate tax. I could then use excess profits in the ltd Co to pay for allowable expenses, pension etc.
So long as you keep yourself down to a 20% Income Tax payer (say by increasing pension contributions in your normal job), then owning properties in your OWN name avoids the problem of extracting profits from your limited company. Sure, buy them via a limited company when you can no longer remain a 20% tax payer.
Those wanting to scale I would look into setting up a holding company which owns your property businesses. You can then loan each of your businesses money interest free without paying corporation tax as it comes off before your tax returns.
APG. Just one thing. I don't have 50K cash, I just have a house in a nice area of Leeds which is paid off. Probably worth about 400 K and another property which I let out and have a mortgage on. Your advice is appreciated.

another option is to use a partnership with the right person. Also depends on the type of property you invest in (HMOs?), whether you want to fully reinvest property profits or whether you want to take the money out and to what extent. Also from those I know those people who have cautiously built portfolios and not continually leveraged themselves to the max, kept LTVs and mortgage costs under control and at the lower end can and will survive even if outside a company.
Great video as always Jamie. So you only have up to 20 properties per company then you establish a new one for further properties and so on because it's easier to get lending this way? Thanks.

Of course through limited company! Pay the max £60K pension through the LTD and this will completely offset any taxes for rent income that you get! So yeah, really, there will be zero tax...
Can do similar in personal name also - contribute to a pension to bring back to basic rate tax payer so s24 doesn’t apply but depends on other income salary I guess
@@SycAamore struggle possibly but I’m on £62k salary plus my portfolio is half with my wife’s whose on maternity / part time and got under the threshold on about £30k of rental income but did contribute £35k with tax relief plus & £8k of my salary into a DB pension.

For other people, (like myself) it can leave one questioning, where else is he being creative with the truth 😏?
Is there a particular reason to constantly buy property? After a certain amount arent you essentially only buying for the sake of buying since you cant really make use of that extra money? My wife and i have maximised both our personal basic rate band with btl property. We were going to expand into a LTD company until i questioned what i need it for. Felt more like an addiction rather than a practical decision I figured we can save for a new main residence and pay down mortages in a few years.

Hi Jamie, great video, I really like the way you bash the taxes, LOL. I just started out renting my first property, as a private, none Ltd Co. I've got my mortgage set at the moment above the minimum payments and have asked from the tenant to pay £150 more than that to cover maintenance if needed. I'm going to keep paying the higher rate to the mortgage company to get the property paid for early and keep the £150 building up. I going to keep myself with in the 20% tax bracket trough my other full time job including the rent.
I'm in a situation where I will be moving abroad and was hoping to keep my home to rent it out. What would the best route to go down? BTL or carry on with my usual mortgage?
Hi Jamie. Im inheriting a property. I want to flip it to sell on, then buy to flip. I will have enough cash, so wont need a morgage. Not interested in rentals. Im in the trades, so have some experience on flips. Question.. ltd or not ?
Probably as you’ll likely be triggering the higher income tax bracket when you flip. Trades you’re probably already earning a good pay so it wouldn’t take much profit to put you into the higher bracket

As for Jack and Sally...is there not some way to transfer their properties into a limited company? Sure, there would be loads of stamp duty to pay, but they could avoid going back to work. What about a transfer into an LLP and then into a limited company?
You can gift your property to a LTD once it is mortgage free, as it is your personal asset. With a mortgage the LTD company would need to buy it at market value…so pointless
@GG-mx9fj This does not sound correct. It is the owner's asset regardless of whether there is a mortgage or not. The market value must be used when taken on board by a limited company. If you disagree, could you kindly provide a link to an article or website that explains your methodology.
@@johnporcella2375 if you buy with LTD it can have a mortgage. However if in your own name and mortgaged it’s not your asset is it, because the bank has an interest in the asset. They gave you a loan based off your filings, not a ltd company. So you’d need to obtain consent from the mortgage lender, it may also be subject to CGT and SDLT. It’s possible then, just needs several steps to jump through first

Great content, we have seen so many other investors jump straight into the ltd company route when they didn't need to. Harder to get cash out of a Ltd company. We have a portfolio in our own names and to keep us in the lower tax bracket we are now buying in a ltd company. Just a quick question is there a vehicle out there where we can transfer the properties that are in our own names into the ltd company without the stamp duty having to be paid? eg trusts

1 BTL in my personal name, almost ready to buy another but considering doing it through a ltd company. Is it worth setting up Ltd for second and transferring ownership of personal BTL when mortgage term ends? Current sat just below £50k tax threshold, many thanks
It's worth setting up a Ltd company if you plan on expanding until your gross income exceeds £50,271. If that's the case, then yes, you should set up Ltd for your second BTL. However, you should keep your 1st BLT in your own name for two reasons - it will be expensive because you'll have to pay 3% in Stamp Duty + legal fees. Also, it's good to have one BTL in your own name because you can include it in your £12,570 of non-taxable income when this is your only source of income (I'm not a legal adviser so seek advice if unsure. This is just my opinion)

Jamie, this example of Jack and Sally, you know that there is jurisprudence out there that means they could’ve incorporated all of their portfolio into a limited company without paying stamp duty tax because there is I’m sure ample evidence they’ve been running this is a business and this the only evidence that they need to bring to court if HMRC challenges them.

Expenses aren't taxed. Assets are taxed. If you buy an additional property, the deposit is taxed because it's an asset which added value to the property. The mortgage is taxable but the interest is an expense. For example, if you pay a £25,000 deposit, that's all taxable because the company is worth £25,000 more. The interest didn't make the company worth more. The expenses didn't make the company worth more (Obviously I'm assuming the deposit was income from rent within the company. If you lend the company a deposit from your own bank account then it's not taxed)

@ Jamie York: I thought you dont look at the price, but at the value.. guess what.. you get value for your tax.. security, roads and other infrastructure, service such as firefighters and health.. what else? Greetings from the Congo
@JamieYork .. hmm.. fair point I guess.. not great here either, nor in the Netherlands. Would you rather decrease price or increase value? Or is there a third way?
That's a great question actually. I would: 1) No one gets taxed up to £30k 2) 30% tax across the board after 3) The country can only be led/ at least the economic decisions, by business leaders. If you haven't run a business, you shouldn't run a country 4) Delayed tax on new businesses. No tax for the first 5 years, on the basis that the tax saved gets reinvested into the business Something like that. In short. More tax over the long run, and higher value deployment
It was harsh, but it wasn’t brought in over night, it was phased in by the government over a number of years I believe! U can sell your personal portfolio to your Ltd company but then you have stamp duty, personal capital gains etc! You would need to sit down and crunch the numbers to see which way would be best for your circumstances
APG - Completely agree with you mate, section 24 is just ridiculous. I currently own 2 buy to lets in my personal name and I'm now debating on how to buy the third one, in my personal name or in a Limited Company. One thing I've noticed is the mortgage fees are absolutely insane to buy it through an LTD. Not only is the interest rate much higher, the product fee for the mortgage is almost double. I've seen product fees as high as 7% if you're buying it through a LTD compared to around 3% in your personal name. Not to mention the annual cost to have an accountant do the taxes for the company. All these littles costs add up and makes me wonder if it's even worth it. Then let's not forget, you pay your 25% corporation tax on the profit and then when you extract some profits as dividends, you personally pay tax on the dividends. So am I missing something here? Where is the incentive to purchase it through the LTD other than being able to offset the mortgage payments? Even if I'm a higher rate tax payer, I've still payed 25% corporation tax on the profit and now 33.75% tax on any dividends I take out. I just don't see where it makes sense.

I'm looking into directors loan account where you can pay yourself the money back tax free which you "loaned" the company to buy the BTL? Going to speak to an accountant about this next week.
@@raymondwuimanyiupianist4164 Yea I was looking into this as well. From what I understand, you lend your LTD company money from your personal account, let's say £50K and you charge interest on that money and slowly extract it back out from the LTD company as and when you want. As it's a loan that the company is repaying, there is no tax on this.
I am literally in the same situation, and also dont see the benefit of buying through a company as the moment you take it out to use the money you end up paying just a smuch tax as if it wa sin personal name. Also more expense and more work to do to run a company, all the bookkeeping is a pain. Did you get any advice in the end?

Thanks Kevin, great ideas! 🤗 Very smart.
Intrest rates are the same in limited company as individial with some lenders. Just done one now
So long as you keep yourself down to a 20% Income Tax payer (say by increasing pension contributions in your normal job), then owning properties in your OWN name avoids the problem of extracting profits from your limited company. Sure, buy them via a limited company when you can no longer remain a 20% tax payer.
What’s the best lease hold or free hold on BTS ?
Those wanting to scale I would look into setting up a holding company which owns your property businesses. You can then loan each of your businesses money interest free without paying corporation tax as it comes off before your tax returns.
Not sure how favourably the commercial lenders view holding companies for funding BTL?
@@kellysimes8238same thought.
@@kellysimes8238Do they need to know? Surely you would just give them the property business name since the holding company isn't getting the mortgage?
APG. Just one thing. I don't have 50K cash, I just have a house in a nice area of Leeds which is paid off. Probably worth about 400 K and another property which I let out and have a mortgage on. Your advice is appreciated.
Take out a massive loan on the property and buy loads more in a PLC.

I’m in a similar situation and would appreciate some advice too
another option is to use a partnership with the right person. Also depends on the type of property you invest in (HMOs?), whether you want to fully reinvest property profits or whether you want to take the money out and to what extent. Also from those I know those people who have cautiously built portfolios and not continually leveraged themselves to the max, kept LTVs and mortgage costs under control and at the lower end can and will survive even if outside a company.
But how can u extract money out of the business when corporation tax is 19% and dividend tax is 33.74% ? Paying 54% tax would destroy your profit.
Ohhhh now THAT’S a great video idea. In short you LIVE through the business as much as possible

Great video as always Jamie. So you only have up to 20 properties per company then you establish a new one for further properties and so on because it's easier to get lending this way? Thanks.

Of course through limited company! Pay the max £60K pension through the LTD and this will completely offset any taxes for rent income that you get! So yeah, really, there will be zero tax...
Can do similar in personal name also - contribute to a pension to bring back to basic rate tax payer so s24 doesn’t apply but depends on other income salary I guess
@@philiphayton8261 If you're making six figures, how will you bring it back to the basic rate even if you're paying £60K for your pension?

For other people, (like myself) it can leave one questioning, where else is he being creative with the truth 😏?
Is there a particular reason to constantly buy property? After a certain amount arent you essentially only buying for the sake of buying since you cant really make use of that extra money?
My wife and i have maximised both our personal basic rate band with btl property. We were going to expand into a LTD company until i questioned what i need it for. Felt more like an addiction rather than a practical decision
I figured we can save for a new main residence and pay down mortages in a few years. Then start investing in our children when they come of age.

Hi Jamie, great video, I really like the way you bash the taxes, LOL. I just started out renting my first property, as a private, none Ltd Co. I've got my mortgage set at the moment above the minimum payments and have asked from the tenant to pay £150 more than that to cover maintenance if needed. I'm going to keep paying the higher rate to the mortgage company to get the property paid for early and keep the £150 building up. I going to keep myself with in the 20% tax bracket trough my other full time job including the rent.
I'm in a situation where I will be moving abroad and was hoping to keep my home to rent it out. What would the best route to go down? BTL or carry on with my usual mortgage?
Hi Jamie. Im inheriting a property. I want to flip it to sell on, then buy to flip. I will have enough cash, so wont need a morgage. Not interested in rentals. Im in the trades, so have some experience on flips. Question.. ltd or not ?
Probably as you’ll likely be triggering the higher income tax bracket when you flip. Trades you’re probably already earning a good pay so it wouldn’t take much profit to put you into the higher bracket
I own a property in my name that i want to rent when i buy my next property, should i keep it in my name or sell it and buy one through a ltd company?

How does these impact a foreign buyer?
As for Jack and Sally...is there not some way to transfer their properties into a limited company? Sure, there would be loads of stamp duty to pay, but they could avoid going back to work. What about a transfer into an LLP and then into a limited company?
You can gift your property to a LTD once it is mortgage free, as it is your personal asset. With a mortgage the LTD company would need to buy it at market value…so pointless
@GG-mx9fj This does not sound correct. It is the owner's asset regardless of whether there is a mortgage or not. The market value must be used when taken on board by a limited company.
If you disagree, could you kindly provide a link to an article or website that explains your methodology.
@@johnporcella2375 if you buy with LTD it can have a mortgage. However if in your own name and mortgaged it’s not your asset is it, because the bank has an interest in the asset. They gave you a loan based off your filings, not a ltd company. So you’d need to obtain consent from the mortgage lender, it may also be subject to CGT and SDLT.
It’s possible then, just needs several steps to jump through first

Great content, we have seen so many other investors jump straight into the ltd company route when they didn't need to. Harder to get cash out of a Ltd company.
We have a portfolio in our own names and to keep us in the lower tax bracket we are now buying in a ltd company. Just a quick question is there a vehicle out there where we can transfer the properties that are in our own names into the ltd company without the stamp duty having to be paid? eg trusts

1 BTL in my personal name, almost ready to buy another but considering doing it through a ltd company. Is it worth setting up Ltd for second and transferring ownership of personal BTL when mortgage term ends? Current sat just below £50k tax threshold, many thanks
It's worth setting up a Ltd company if you plan on expanding until your gross income exceeds £50,271. If that's the case, then yes, you should set up Ltd for your second BTL. However, you should keep your 1st BLT in your own name for two reasons - it will be expensive because you'll have to pay 3% in Stamp Duty + legal fees. Also, it's good to have one BTL in your own name because you can include it in your £12,570 of non-taxable income when this is your only source of income (I'm not a legal adviser so seek advice if unsure. This is just my opinion)

Jamie, this example of Jack and Sally, you know that there is jurisprudence out there that means they could’ve incorporated all of their portfolio into a limited company without paying stamp duty tax because there is I’m sure ample evidence they’ve been running this is a business and this the only evidence that they need to bring to court if HMRC challenges them.

Can you use the funds built up in the ltd as deposit for future purchases?
100%
If the property is used for short stay let/airbnb , can the mortgage interest still be taxable through an Ltd?
Think this is what’s changing isn’t it?
@@kellysimes8238Changing in 2025. Don’t bother
If u buy through a company and the company uses the profits to buy more property, does that reduce company profit and therefore tax bill? 🤔
Expenses aren't taxed. Assets are taxed. If you buy an additional property, the deposit is taxed because it's an asset which added value to the property. The mortgage is taxable but the interest is an expense. For example, if you pay a £25,000 deposit, that's all taxable because the company is worth £25,000 more. The interest didn't make the company worth more. The expenses didn't make the company worth more (Obviously I'm assuming the deposit was income from rent within the company. If you lend the company a deposit from your own bank account then it's not taxed)

Large houses personal only.
Just go North. Everything is friendlier, less crime and cheaper. Labour for repairs much cheaper. Plus property will highly likely go up more and go down less over longer periods.

@ Jamie York: I thought you dont look at the price, but at the value.. guess what.. you get value for your tax.. security, roads and other infrastructure, service such as firefighters and health.. what else? Greetings from the Congo
Haha… value for the tax we pay in the UK? There hasn’t been value for decades
@JamieYork .. hmm.. fair point I guess.. not great here either, nor in the Netherlands. Would you rather decrease price or increase value? Or is there a third way?
That's a great question actually. I would:
1) No one gets taxed up to £30k
2) 30% tax across the board after
3) The country can only be led/ at least the economic decisions, by business leaders. If you haven't run a business, you shouldn't run a country
4) Delayed tax on new businesses. No tax for the first 5 years, on the basis that the tax saved gets reinvested into the business
Something like that. In short. More tax over the long run, and higher value deployment
Can’t imagine 10k per month passive turning into £8k per year…that’s brutal….
Happened to a lot of people i know. 1 had 16,1 had 100 both no longer are landlords.
Yep its a bit of a body blow
It was harsh, but it wasn’t brought in over night, it was phased in by the government over a number of years I believe! U can sell your personal portfolio to your Ltd company but then you have stamp duty, personal capital gains etc! You would need to sit down and crunch the numbers to see which way would be best for your circumstances
APG - Completely agree with you mate, section 24 is just ridiculous. I currently own 2 buy to lets in my personal name and I'm now debating on how to buy the third one, in my personal name or in a Limited Company. One thing I've noticed is the mortgage fees are absolutely insane to buy it through an LTD. Not only is the interest rate much higher, the product fee for the mortgage is almost double. I've seen product fees as high as 7% if you're buying it through a LTD compared to around 3% in your personal name. Not to mention the annual cost to have an accountant do the taxes for the company. All these littles costs add up and makes me wonder if it's even worth it. Then let's not forget, you pay your 25% corporation tax on the profit and then when you extract some profits as dividends, you personally pay tax on the dividends. So am I missing something here? Where is the incentive to purchase it through the LTD other than being able to offset the mortgage payments? Even if I'm a higher rate tax payer, I've still payed 25% corporation tax on the profit and now 33.75% tax on any dividends I take out. I just don't see where it makes sense.

I'm looking into directors loan account where you can pay yourself the money back tax free which you "loaned" the company to buy the BTL? Going to speak to an accountant about this next week.
@@raymondwuimanyiupianist4164 Yea I was looking into this as well. From what I understand, you lend your LTD company money from your personal account, let's say £50K and you charge interest on that money and slowly extract it back out from the LTD company as and when you want. As it's a loan that the company is repaying, there is no tax on this.
I am literally in the same situation, and also dont see the benefit of buying through a company as the moment you take it out to use the money you end up paying just a smuch tax as if it wa sin personal name. Also more expense and more work to do to run a company, all the bookkeeping is a pain. Did you get any advice in the end?

My biggest gripe about the section 24 law is that we were not given the opportunity to move our portfolio into a limited company without cost or little cost. Just straight into S24
That’s a VERY good point tbh. No one has actually said that to me before but it makes a lot of sense
Section 24 is just there to stop Jo average from buying property as a second income and not being a ‘professional landlord’
