If you’re a higher rate tax payer (so with an annual income in excess of £45,000), then from April 2020 you will only get tax relief at 20% on buy-to-let mortgage interest payments. This means your tax bill will increase by 8% of the amount of interest paid.
The changes to mortgage interest relief mean that many landlords are now making new residential property investments via limited companies.
Kelvin says: Landlords could also benefit from an uplift in the tax base cost of property transferred to a company in exchange for shares, meaning a reduction in tax costs on sale.
Rental profits would be taxed at the lower corporate rates and there’s no restriction on loan interest deductions.

The SDLT (Stamp Duty Land Tax) position would need careful thought, although reliefs may be available for transfers of property held in partnership, or transfers of multiple properties.
40% of your wealth could disappear to the tax man on death - but there are ways to avoid this by acting in your lifetime. You could set up a trust fund or gift property to your children - but you need to be careful not to trigger a tax charge at the time.
There are also opportunities to decrease exposure to IHT (Inheritance Tax) where your property portfolio is held in a company whereby different classes of shares could be issued.
