We have 4 properties let out in our Ltd company and 5 properties in our private name. We are looking to exit the whole BTL business and move on.sell

We are looking to sell our company as a whole and the other properties as the mortgages come to an end. Could you give any advice on the quickest and most cost effective way of doing this please.

Many thanks

Carol

I would be talking to letting agents in the area where the properties are located & offering them a nice earner for finding buyer(s)

have you spoken to an accountant regarding the best approach?

I have a feeling (but no evidence) that spreading the company disposals over tax years and extracting the profits in those tax years may be better from a tax position.

Hi Carol,
I note your comments about selling the company as a whole. As an Investor myself, I also have a limited company and am looking for Portfolio Purchases as well as individual properties as a quick way to expand the business. It would also be a lot quicker.

Good luck and feel free to PM me.

Hi David,
I don't really know Liverpool. As a rule, I like to stick with areas that I have a good working local knowledge of such as Leeds, South Bucks., Middlesex & Dorset. I would also consider West and North West London.

Thanks Paul

Carol - I would attend a local property meeting, like PIN, where I am sure you will find an investor looking to expand their portfolio. Subject to negotiation, you could hand over the day to day management through a Purchase Lease Option and sell one a year (subject to your tax accountant's advice) to mitigate some tax, whilst still benefiting from a guaranteed income. Good luck

How would this reduce tax?

Also, my understanding of lease purchase arrangements is that the current owner carries the bulk of the risk for little to no benefit
