About me

Accountant - FCA - Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. Big four trained (Deloitte)

 Property tax expert (IT, CT, CGT, SDLT, IHT) and property investor

You can contact me for a free brainstorming session and review of your tax situation. I often invite my associate who is a qualified chartered tax advisor and tax partner in a top 40 accountancy practice onto the call - an expert in creating very powerful tax minimisation strategies.

Our combined charge out rate is £700 per hour but we do not charge for this call as we are happy to help, and every now and then someone would like our help implementing the strategy, which could save hundreds of thousands of pounds or more in tax depending on your situation and objectives.

Property taxation is highly complex, and it is quite likely that your current advisors are not completely specialised in these advanced strategies.

Definitely worth spending half an hour having a pleasant chat and bouncing around a few ideas. 

To apply for this click the contact me button and message me on that page, or Facebook or Linkedin, and just tell me a bit about your situation and what you would like to discuss.

Note that the video below about family investment companies  (also known as alphabet or smart companies) talks about saving property tax, but it works just as well for non property industries as well. Beware of unqualified, unregulated people providing this service. We always work with lawyers and other partners who are suitably qualified to provide the necessary advice, and draft the legal documents.

 Business advisor/CFO/NED/Consultant - Available to hire by the hour and day

 Year end accounts, bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, management accounts for all industries

 Specialist in helping property entrepreneurs save tax with intelligent structuring of their ownership eg with a holding company, discretionary trust, LLP and smart companies with multiple classes of shares with different voting rights, dividend rights, and capital gain rights. This allows you to pass income, capital gain and wealth around far more tax efficiently to close family members. Also this is often done as loans, which protects your family if they are sued or going through divorce.

The best time to set such a structure up is right at the beginning, or as soon as possible. The longer you leave it, the more you are taxed when you move assets and cash around.

  Our focus is on commercial and corporate tax matters. Our particular area of specialism is providing strategic and tactical tax planning advice to business owners, property investors and corporate clients. We have considerable experience of corporate restructures, mergers and acquisitions as well as R&D Tax reliefs.
