BKL Event: Property Trends in 2019

Events & Webinars

Despite the economic uncertainty that’s continued into 2019, interest in the UK property sector is as strong as ever. What’s been happening since last year’s Budget and what does the year ahead hold for property owners and businesses?

On Wednesday 27 February, our property and tax experts discussed the latest updates and what to be aware of, including:

  • New tax relief for depreciation of commercial buildings
  • New increased £1m annual limit for existing fixtures tax allowances
  • Some changes – good and bad – to the 10% CGT rate (Entrepreneurs’ Relief)
  • VAT update

We were pleased to welcome Richard Fine from Brotherton Real Estate as our guest speaker. Richard shared his insights on overall prospects for the property market.

The slides from our presentations are available here.

Our property partners Myfanwy and Jason will also be at MIPIM in Cannes on 12-15 March, along with our senior VAT adviser Simon Levine. Find out more here.
