Property118 has long been a champion for landlords, offering innovative and essential solutions to help property investors restructure their businesses into companies, without being hit by large, unnecessary costs. One of the biggest hurdles in this process is the significant financing costs associated with restructuring. At Property118, we developed legal strategies that allow landlords to delay these major costs, making the transition far more affordable and efficient.

But now, HMRC is targeting these practical solutions, accusing Property118 of promoting tax avoidance. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Our strategies follow well-established legal rules and are designed to solve real, legitimate business challenges faced by landlords—not to avoid tax.

Why Are We Fighting Back?

HMRC’s actions unfairly threaten landlords who are simply trying to operate their businesses in a financially responsible way. They have taken aim at structures like our Substantial Incorporation Structure (SIS) and Capital Account Restructure (CAR) Arrangement—strategies designed to help landlords manage the complex process of moving their portfolios into limited companies without immediate, heavy tax liabilities.

These are not tax avoidance schemes. They are legitimate, lawful strategies that allow property businesses to operate more efficiently. But if HMRC’s stance goes unchallenged, landlords across the UK will be forced into costly and unsustainable situations—simply for trying to restructure their businesses in line with the law.

At Property118, we’re fighting back. We are using strong legal arguments, backed by solid case law, to defend the legitimacy of our solutions. We’re standing up to HMRC’s unjust actions, not just for us, but for every landlord who uses these strategies to run a compliant, responsible property business.
