Section-24 Mortgage Restriction Now Applies
Finance costs that were 100% deductible under FHL are now restricted to a 20% basic-rate credit — for many owners that's a four-figure tax rise. We model the hit and plan around it.
The FHL regime ended 6 April 2025. The tax planning that follows it is more important than the regime ever was.
From 6 April 2025, HMRC abolished the Furnished Holiday Lettings tax regime — no more 100% finance-cost relief, no more capital allowances on new spend, no more BADR on disposals, no more relevant earnings for pension purposes. Your cottage or coastal let is now taxed as ordinary property income. We help FHL owners restructure properly — incorporation, transitional relief, capital-allowance pooling before the cut-off, and CGT planning on exit.

Finance costs that were 100% deductible under FHL are now restricted to a 20% basic-rate credit — for many owners that's a four-figure tax rise. We model the hit and plan around it.
Pre-April-2025 expenditure on furniture, fixtures, and integral features that was never properly pooled can still be claimed via the transitional rules. We do the survey and the claim — most owners are sitting on five-figure pools.
Moving an FHL into a limited company can restore mortgage-interest relief — but triggers SDLT and CGT. We model the numbers across a 5-year and 10-year horizon before anyone signs paperwork.
Selling post-April-2025? BADR's 10%/14% rate is no longer available on FHL gains — they're taxed as residential property at 18%/24%. We plan the timing, the reliefs left, and the spousal-transfer options.
Survey, pool, and claim the unclaimed plant-and-machinery and integral-features allowances before the window narrows.
Modelled comparisons of personal ownership, LLP, and Ltd structures — including the SDLT and CGT cost of transfer.
Restructuring debt, ownership shares, or trading basis to manage the new 20% basic-rate credit cap.
CGT planning on sales using the residential 18%/24% rates, PRR if ever lived-in, and spousal transfers to use both annual exemptions.
FHL profits used to count as relevant earnings for pension contributions — they no longer do. We restructure the income mix to keep contributions tax-relievable.
Once gross income clears the £90k VAT threshold, holiday lets are standard-rated — we handle registration, the TOMS questions, and the Flat-Rate Scheme decision.
