What’s the Company structure for commercial conversions? is a frequently asked question and in this episode, Shaz explains all
He shares invaluable content on why setting up a holding company provides the flexibility you need to be able to scale and grow and explains why when you are a trading company there are potentially useful tax reliefs available
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Only do one commercial conversion per company at any one time
Before you do your first commercial conversion set up a holding company
A holding company gives you the flexibility to move finance around
You can have different classes of shares
A trading structure is when you buy, refurbish, and sell properties
If it’s a trading structure when you sell shares in the company you can claim substantial shareholding exemption
If you are holding properties the company becomes an investment business and you lose some tax relief
Make sure you are clear about holding or selling and stick to the plan
BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s called a holding company because it holds all the shares for the SPVs you own moving forward’
‘You lose if you lose trading status’
