    I enjoy the channel, wondered if you could help -
    What advice for an only child looking to inherit who just learned that farther died one year ago?
    A search agency has informed of father's death, he had always wanted to be in the life of the son but the feeling was not mutual. He died without having ever been married and so by rights the son should be the sole heir - unless he did something crazy like left the money to a neighbour. But over the last year he has not been contacted by the will executor. For all the son knows he is the executor but hasn't been contacted about that either... Where does he go from here? He knows the date of death and the town, does not know an address however or have contact details for any of the father's siblings or family members. How does he track down the will and/or the executor? Of course it is possible that no will was written, in which case of course the son would be the rightful heir. But what if a nephew or someone has already swooped in and claimed to be the closet living relative and taken the estate? Hypothetically in this situation, how difficult would it be to get the estate off (a nephew for example) and have it rewarded to the son? And it's been a year, what if the father's bank accounts have been cleaned out without a trace?! The son has looked at a government website to see all unclaimed property but the father's name isn't showing. Is this a cause for concern? He would have been a property owner, unless he went to a arehome. Where should the son go from here? Who should he contact? Thank you so much.

    I wonder if you can clear a few things up if possible. My parents have buried there head in the sand effectively and really don’t want to deal with any of this planning at all. I’m confused as to whether when one passes there allowance over to the other parent do they retain this allowance to pass on to children? For example if my mother passed and gave her allowance of 325 my dad would have 650 allowance? Is he then allowed to pass assets up to this amount on his passing to children? Thanks for any guidance

    As an only child who is also carer and POA and living in the same household for 20 years, her will favours myself, 100%. Currently the property is worth in the region of £900,000 plus other savings and shares. Can you briefly tell me my position with regards to the tax relief, as this is my sole residence. Would I have to sell the house to pay any IHT? Thank you in anticipation.

    • @UK-Property-Tax-Accountants
      @UK-Property-Tax-Accountants  2 роки тому

      IHT reliefs could be up to £500,000 if they had no previous spouse who passed on their lifetime IHT reliefs.
      The excess would be subject to 40% tax. I would say that £400,000 may be such to IHT with a tax liability of £160,000.
      There are a lot of assumptions here so do not rely on these numbers. Seek professional advice

    If i inherited about £1m worth of uk property, after the threshold of 500k on this and my father's residence, I'd pay around 200k. Now, do i still have to pay cgt on the increase of these rental properties too? Or cgt on any that are sold later, after the iht bill is settled?

      Property is transferred at market value on death. CGT is payable is the value increases from that valuation. Does that make sense?

I satisfy the trading and control critieria. Can the premisis receive 100% BPR for IHT purposes, or can it only be 50% max. I’m a bit confused about this.

    Thanks for intro. Would it be true to say that if you are asked to be an Executor of an estate, you should immediately say...
    'I will need to know about all of your assets (property, pensions (current and pending), all online and paper accounts, assets inc. cryptocurrency, businesses, shares, debts/loans/mortgages, gifts made/received, charity donations, all incomings and outgoings, all web accounts inc. social media, blogs, websites, etc.) and be informed by you of any changes as they happen. I also need to have a copy of your current Will which should also detail how you want online accounts to be handled - e.g. Facebook, Instagram, etc.'
    You don't need to know exact amounts but you need to be aware that these assets/debts exist. If they are not willing to share this info then you cannot be an Executor.

    Don't think you ever answered the question in the title? I believe it's within 6 months of the death?

    • @UK-Property-Tax-Accountants
      @UK-Property-Tax-Accountants  2 роки тому

      Not always as it get much depends on the assets and the agreement with HMRC. IHT if not extended is payable at the end of the 6 months rather than within if that helps.

  • @kohtime
    @kohtime 2 роки тому

    Can I ask please if assets within a property of 270k get passed within intestacy to a spouse (note, no will) does this negate the 270 of the 325k nrb that could be passed on? For example in this situation would the second partner be able to pass both nrb allowances on £650k if no will was made? Also would the RNRB allowance be available from the first partner if left through intestacy? Thank you so much for your help

    • @kohtime
      @kohtime 2 роки тому +1

      As im sure you have seen I asked you a similar question a few months back, the caveat being that I was unable to drag my parents head from the sand and here we are! Very fearful now that any eventual inheritance would be subject to large amounts of IHT if the 325k allowance wasn’t retained from first parent through intestacy…. Especially considering this may need to be paid before I’d have access to funds to pay it
