2. Do you use a professional capital allowances specialist?

• Does your tax adviser highlight capital allowances on their website or in the tax team biographies or case studies?

• Do you involve your capital allowances adviser in new acquisition transactions?

*Residential Opportunities

Capital allowances are not available on most residential property. However those properties used as Furnished Holiday Lettings (FHLs) in the UK or EEA, Homes of Multiple Occupation (HMOs) and the ‘common areas’ or large apartment blocks can potentially yield significant capital allowances. The rules are very complex and HM Revenue & Customs has increased its level of scrutiny in response to higher numbers of claims over the last five years or so.
