TAX ADVANTAGES

Commercial Property Investment

There are a number of tax advantages of investing in commercial property:

  • Any growth in the property value, when held in a SIPP, is free from Capital Gains Tax. The rental income received by your client’s SIPP is also tax free.
  • Pension legislation allows a SIPP to borrow up to 50% of the net fund value, less any existing liabilities to purchase a property.
  • Additional tax advantages may arise if your client sells their business premises to their SIPP and lease it back to their firm. For example rent paid to the SIPP is a deductible business expense and could therefore reduce both the income or corporation tax liability to the client’s business.
  • Please refer to the SIPP Key Features Document for more information regarding pension benefits such as tax relief on contributions or Inheritance Tax.

RISK CONSIDERATIONS

Commercial Property Investment

Some of the main considerations are highlighted below:

  • Property can be difficult to dispose of and may take longer to sell than many other pension assets. Your clients will need to consider the likely future resale value to minimise any issues when looking to sell the investment.
  • You should always ensure that there are sufficient cash holdings within your SIPP to meet liabilities attached to the property such as business rates, third party fees or insurance. If funds are not available to settle liabilities we may look to sell the property.
