Land Value Tax keeps coming up whenever property tax reform is discussed, swipe through for what's actually confirmed and what isn't.

We've written a full breakdown of Burnham's proposals so far on our website. Follow for updates as this develops.

Sold a rental property this summer? The CGT clock may already be ticking.
If you’ve sold a UK residential property at a taxable gain, you generally have 60 days from completion to report the gain and pay the Capital Gains Tax due.
And that’s not the end of it, the disposal still needs to be included on your Self Assessment return.
Miss the 60-day deadline and penalties and interest can follow. If you’re a non-UK resident, the rules can be even stricter.
👉 Save this post if you’re planning to sell a property, and speak to a tax professional if you’re unsure about your reporting obligations.

Swipe through for 3 legitimate ways to reduce your IHT exposure, and what actually qualifies.
Speak to a specialist before acting, especially on trusts and BPR, where the rules are easy to misapply.

31 July is approaching and if you're a landlord or property investor, this date matters. Your second Self Assessment payment on account for 2025/26 is due by 31 July 2026. Three things to know before the deadline: → This is not a new charge, it's a payment toward your current year's tax bill, based on last year's figures → If your income has dropped significantly this year, you may be able to apply to reduce the payment before the deadline → Missing it means HMRC charges daily interest from 1 August 2026 If you're not sure what you owe or whether a reduction applies, now is the time to find out.
