Although the
Chancellor has announced that the threshold
at which an estate becomes liable to pay
inheritance tax will increase over the next
few years, the overall increase in property
values over the last twenty years has meant
a far greater number of estates now fall
into this category. Hamilton Salerooms
maintain close contact with the majority of
the tax and probate practitioners in the
region and our valuers can provide certified
valuations in accordance with s.160 of
the Inheritance Tax Act 1984.
We also offer a
Complete Executor Service encompassing
valuation, collection and clearance,
storage, distribution to beneficiaries and
sale by auction.
Careful tax
planning with the aid of an accurate
valuation can help minimize future
liabilities to capital gains tax and
inheritance tax and may facilitate the
opportunity to take advantage of the various
forms of tax relief available by way of
gifts etc.
