More landlords now hold property through a limited company. A company can deduct finance costs in full, pays corporation tax rather than income tax, and can make it easier to pass on property over time. It also brings more paperwork and different rules.

Thinking of setting up a property company?
A limited company isn't right for everyone. Moving properties you already own into a company can trigger capital gains tax and stamp duty land tax, mortgage or Islamic finance terms may differ, and taking money out of a company is taxed too. I look at your numbers and tell you whether it makes sense before you commit, as a fixed-fee one-off project.
