Lifetime giving

Tax consequences of a lifetime gift

Our team of tax and estate planning advisers will listen to what you want to achieve in making a lifetime gift  and advise on the tax consequences. We will consider your options on how best to achieve your objectives.

The services we offer include:

Providing for children

An outright gift to a child could result in the money being spent on an unintended purchase. Or the purchase of a property for your child could give you a Capital Gains Tax liability on a future disposal.

We can advise on the tax and non-tax consequences of the gift and advise on how the gift can be structured.

If you set up a family trust, our Trust management team can assist with the on-going running of the trust.

Tax reliefs and exemptions

There are many tax reliefs and exemptions available. Some examples include is an Inheritance Tax annual exemption for making gifts each tax year  and Capital Gains Tax relief on the disposal of your main residence.

Through careful planning you can maximise the use of these reliefs.
