How do I form a buy-to-let company?
In order to set up a company, you need to register with Companies House and complete the necessary paperwork. This can be complicated, as the paperwork can be in-depth and contain legal and accountant jargon. Therefore, you may find it easier and ultimately more cost-effective in the long run to ask one of our solicitors to set up your company for you. We can do this as an add-on to your conveyancing – contact us to find out more.
How do I transfer property into a company?
As the current owner of a property in Colchester, you are effectively selling your property to a company. Therefore you will need to redeem your current mortgage if you have one and set up the required finance in your company name. Selling the property will mean you are liable for stamp duty and may have to pay capital gains tax. Consequently, we would also recommend you speak to an accountant first.
