Property Ownership
and Development
Smart Tax Planning for Real Estate Investors, Developers & Property Owners
Property can be a powerful investment—if structured correctly. Whether you’re building a property portfolio, developing land, or managing rental assets, your approach to property tax planning can make a significant difference in long-term returns.
At My Tax Consultants, we help clients navigate the complexities of property ownership and development with tailored, tax-efficient strategies. From acquisition to exit, we support you at every stage of the investment lifecycle.
Why Tax Strategy Matters in Property
Property transactions are subject to a unique mix of taxes—each with its own pitfalls and planning opportunities. Without expert guidance, landlords and developers can find themselves paying more than necessary in Income Tax, Capital Gains Tax, Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), or VAT.
We work closely with property investors, family-run portfolios, and development firms to simplify structure, reduce exposure, and align investment decisions with your financial goals.
Planning for the Future
If you’re thinking about succession, estate planning, or selling property, our team offers bespoke guidance to help you:
- Prepare for inheritance tax on property assets
- Transition ownership to the next generation tax-efficiently
- Sell with confidence, knowing your liabilities are minimised
Build a structure that works for you now and later

Restructuring Property Portfolios: A Smarter Way to Own and Grow Property
Many clients come to us with organically grown portfolios. Meaning, what started as one rental becomes five or ten. With that growth comes complexity: multiple lenders, joint ownerships, and rising tax burdens. We help clients restructure property portfolios for efficiency, whether through incorporation, trust planning, or simplified ownership arrangements. Our goal? To reduce friction and increase returns.
