Construction & real estate
Overcoming complexity for property professionals
Property, real estate and construction are some of the biggest industries in the UK economy, spanning a wide range of professions. From single-property landlords and property managers to estate agents and construction firms, we work with businesses of all types across these sectors.
One of the biggest challenges is complex regulation and legislation. Construction contractors and subcontractors need to meet specific accounting rules under the construction industry scheme (CIS), while ongoing tax changes for landlords have pushed more people to reconsider their business structure.
The property sector as a whole faces heavy scrutiny from HMRC, making it all the more important to get things right.
As specialist construction and real estate accountants, we can help you to navigate the rules and meet your business’s goals. Our industry experts will take care of your accounts and compliance, giving you a clear explanation for everything along the way.
Our specialist services include:
- complying with CIS
- meeting off-payroll working rules (IR35)
- accounting for the VAT domestic reverse charge
- stamp duty, VAT and capital gains tax
- tax planning and property portfolio management
- tax reliefs and allowances for property
- business structuring and restructuring.
