Would the negative cash flow be worth the massive appreciation upside? Today, we’re answering that exact question from an investor who could be sitting on a wealth-building opportunity but doesn’t know what decision to make.

    Do you need to worry about tax on your savings and investments?

    Do you need to worry about tax on your savings and investments?
    Many people have not had to worry about paying tax on their savings and investments for some time.

    The advent of the £1,000 personal savings allowance combined with savings rates near record lows meant basic rate taxpayers would need big cash pots to incur 20 per cent tax on their interest.

    Meanwhile, even higher rate taxpayers with their lower £500 personal savings allowance needed reasonably large cash pots to pay 40 per cent tax on their interest.

    Many investors also didn't need to worry too much about capital gains tax, with a tax-free allowance of £12,300 per year.

    But things have changed: rising savings rates and fiscal drag pulling more people into the higher rate bracket mean that many more savers will now have to pay tax on interest - while Jeremy Hunt's tax raid on investors will see the capital gains tax allowance slashed to £6,000 and then £3,000.

    So do you now need to worry about tax on your savings and investments and what can you do? Georgie Frost, Tanya Jefferies and Simon Lambert dive into the world of savings and capital gains tax on this podcast.

    Unsurprisingly, the benefits of an Isa feature strongly, as do some other tips and a discussion of what this means for buy-to-let landlords and second home owners.

    Plus, there is a special guest podcast appearance from our pensions columnist Steve Webb to talk through a major victory for someone told by the DWP they were owed much less from a delayed state pension than they actually were - and an update on pension credit.

    And finally, has the used car price boom come to an end? Simon talks us through why some second hand cars - including popular electric ones - have seen their prices drop.

    A Surprise Announcement (Ep 1507)
    I have a special announcement on the show today. I also discuss the things liberals are doing that are actively destroying America, and I ask the question, “are they trying to burn the country down?”  News Picks: An excellent piece that describes the dangers of “critical race theory.” Bill Maher absolutely shreds the dopey ideas of the modern liberal.  Are NYPD officers rushing to retire amid the anti-cop climate?  Twitter and the “fact-checkers” are super busy cleaning up the Stacey Abrams’ mess in Georgia. The Wall Street Journal article regarding the proposed capital gains tax disaster, which I discussed in the show today. Crime is exploding in NY City and liberal leaders are ignoring it.  Florida and Texas continue to outperform the lockdown states on COVID.  Copyright Bongino Inc All Rights Reserved.

    ASK274: Do REITs experience growth in a boom? PLUS: Will this help me avoid CGT?

    ASK274: Do REITs experience growth in a boom? PLUS: Will this help me avoid CGT?

    Rob & Rob are back again this week to answer two more fantastic questions.

    We’ve got a rather interesting first question from Brendan.

    He’s got a question on the 18 year property cycle, one of our favourite topics to talk about. 

    Brendan wants to know if Real Estate Investment Trusts (REIT) are likely to experience the same sort of growth in a boom period as residential property?

    If you’re not 100% sure on what a REIT is and how they work, don’t worry, Rob D covers that along with how they benefit property investors.

    The second question on this week’s episode is from Antonio. 

    He’s got a portfolio of properties which he’s had for around 20 years and is now considering selling. 

    His accountant has advised him that if he moves back into the property for 6-12 months, he won’t have to pay capital gains tax on the sale as it will be seen as his main residence. 

    Is this a way of getting around capital gains tax?

    Tune in to find out.

    TPP370: 4 property investors give us millions to spend!

    TPP370: 4 property investors give us millions to spend!

    Rob & Rob are back again this week for a slightly different episode of The Property Podcast. Today they’re advising four different investors on how they should spend their money.

    We’re always asked for advice by aspiring and experienced property investors on how best to invest their money. 

    And now (possibly more than ever), investors seem a tad confused on where they should be putting their money, if anywhere at all! 

    All of the investors you’ll hear from today are at the start of their journey with different strategies and different sums of money to start with, but ultimately they want to know how best to invest in the current climate. 

    So, here are the four different scenarios we’ll be looking at on today’s podcast:

    1. James - he has £10,000 in a government Help to Buy ISA and is looking to either move out of his parents house and continue to save for his first buy-to-let, or withdraw the money from his ISA and take the penalty hit to use that money to invest in his first property whilst still living at home.

    2. Jay - he’s looking at buy-to-let properties in Salford Crescent and really likes the look of high-rise living in Manchester. Jay has an inheritance that he’s wanting to make the most of by putting it into property and would like Rob & Rob’s advice.

    3. Our third caller has a cash pot of £200,000 but is wanting a return of around 40% on his investments per year, but on an income basis. He’s looking at going down the buy-refurb-refinance strategy to try and pull money out after the refurbs.

    4. The fourth and final caller is wanting to know how The Robs would invest £3 million and what strategy would they use? He’s not bothered if it’s in the UK or overseas, but in terms of buy-to-let property he’s wondering if Rob & Rob would be more likely to go down the smaller, lower cost property route or go for more mid range and larger properties. 

    We all know how much Rob & Rob love talking goals and strategies with people and this is a great episode to do just that. 

    You may be in a similar situation to these four callers, or just be listening for a nosey. So what do The Robs think they should do? 

    Tune in to find out.

     

    In the news this week, we’ve got not one news story but two! The first is more of a reminder to all property investors that changes to Capital Gains Tax are now in effect. So now if you sell a property and have Capital Gains Tax to pay, you only have 30 days to submit your application. 

    The second news story comes from an email that Rob D received around mortgage holidays and the rumour that it could potentially affect your ability to get lending if you take a mortgage holiday. At first that’s all it was, a rumour, but now it’s come to light that one mortgage lender in particular is not allowing mortgage holidays and will not accept your application if you have already taken out a mortgage holiday. 

     

    This week’s Hub Extra resource is from Money Saving Expert. They’ve put together a list of really useful resources that you normally have to pay for, but the companies that provide them have made them free whilst we’re in lockdown and everyone is looking for something to do. 

    There’s all kinds of things for you to sink your teeth into; from kids activities to guitar lessons. So maybe take a look and see if you fancy learning something new.

     

    We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do.

    ASK223: Should I turn my flat into a holiday let? PLUS: Will this area benefit from the ripple effect?

    ASK223: Should I turn my flat into a holiday let? PLUS: Will this area benefit from the ripple effect?

    This week on Ask Rob & Rob, the guys are answering two great questions on holiday lets and if one certain area could be an up and coming hotspot, following on from the ripple effect.

    First up is Claire from Nottingham. She is in the process of moving into a house and has taken 75% equity from her 2-bedroom flat to make the move. 

    She’s now wondering if she should keep her flat as a standard buy-to-let property or if she should turn it into a holiday let and list it on the likes of Airbnb. 

    Her apartment is located just 10 minutes from Nottingham city centre and she’s tried Airbnb in the past which worked out well for her. So, providing she has regular bookings, she’s wondering if she’d be better off tax wise, to have the property as a holiday let as opposed to a buy-to-let? 

    So, will Claire be better off going down the holiday let route? 

    The second question comes in from Graham in Leicester. He’s been an avid podcast listener for a while and has now got three properties in his portfolio. 

    Graham now has a question on the ripple effect that Rob & Rob discuss quite frequently. He’s heard people talk about the ripple effect of Sheffield and Doncaster, but he wants to know if Rotherham will benefit from Sheffield’s ripple effect? 

    Will Rob & Rob give Rotherham the green light?

    Tune in to find out...

    Should we rip up capital gains tax rules? And how to save 40% off a new car

    Should we rip up capital gains tax rules? And how to save 40% off a new car
    Entrepreneurs and investors pay less tax on their profits to reflect the risk they take. 
     
    That’s the principle that lies behind capital gains tax being lower than the rates charged on employment income.
     
    But the influential think-tank, the Institute for Public Policy Research, wants to rip up that system and charge the same rate on gains from selling shares or property as income tax – and hack back the annual capital gains tax allowance to just £1,000.
     
    It even wants to remove the special low entrepreneur rate given to those who have sold a business that they built up.
     
    Is this the kind of For the many not the few move that Britain needs to level the playing field between those with plenty of capital and the ability to make investments and those who don’t?
     
    Or is it just another planned tax raid on those putting their money to productive use and growing our collective wealth?
     
    On this week’s podcast, Simon Lambert and Georgie Frost dig into the IPPR’s proposals and look at whether this is the kind of thing that could become Labour party policy?
     
    They also look at long-term investments that have paid off, risky investments to be wary of and the one thing plenty of people are happy to sink thousands of pounds into 
    knowing that they will lose a big chunk of their money – a brand new car.
     
    The good news is that due to a perfect storm of a deadline on new regulation and crashing sales, there are some astonishing deals on pre-registered ‘new’ cars with as much as 40% off. The bad news is that you’ll still almost certainly lose money.
