Kensington February 2020 Meeting 

Understand clarity to gain creativity and ultimate success - Gillie Barlow 

Gillie's favourite words in Property are Clarity and creativity.  Too much confusion abounds and often people don’t want to admit their lack of understanding and the ‘How to’.  It's time to stop struggling quietly and believing that you are the only one that doesn't get it.  

Gaining Clarity today will mean you can enjoy tomorrow.  Confusion causes distorted faces and often a fog and an unclear path.  

Gillie looks forward to talking through some key areas within the property world that need clarity in order to progress on your journey and not only reach your goal but enjoy the journey en-route.

ALSO... The Pro's and Con's of Ltd Company V Direct Property Ownership - no one size fits all  -  Graham Jennings 

Kirk Rice LLP are a leading firm of accountants with regard to accounting, audits and tax of property sector entities. They look after a huge number of property clients ranging from buy-to-let landlords through to large property group. They are extremely well placed to provide cutting edge tax advice on all aspects of property. 

Graham has over 30 years’ experience in business accounting audit and personal tax and has worked extensively with property and also construction businesses. 

With the changes in recent years relating to the tax relief available on mortgage interest and other finance costs there have been questions surrounding buying property via a Limited company. They will analyse the pros and cons to holding property directly vs via a Limited company as well as commercial implications which sometimes can be more important than the tax considerations . 

They will look at case studies and include relevant tax analysis. Their work may be complex but we speak your language so they won’t be too technical. The key message is that no one solution fits all and whilst owning property via a company can be the right answer for one individual it can be the wrong answer for another person.
