Tax rebate for holiday home owners
• Are you a UK resident for tax purposes?  Do you own a property available for holiday let in Europe?  Do you make that property available for let?  Did you purchase the property for more than £150,000? If you can answer yes to all of these questions, you may be eligible for a Capital Allowance Tax refund of around £10-15,000.    We have teamed up with International Property Success who have arranged a no upfront fees scheme with a tax expert.  The scheme is fully HMRC approved. The amount you can claim will vary according to the rate of tax you pay and the specifics of the property. Claims are administered swiftly.  You will receive a report on your rebate, showing how much you can reclaim, in most instances within 8 weeks.  International Property Success are advisers that specialise in the capital allowance field.  They do not charge upfront fees - you only pay once your case has been approved by your accountant.    Experience shows that unless an investor has access to the appropriate level of expertise it is rare for all available tax allowances to be identified which means that the majority of Investors are not claiming all the tax allowances they are entitled to.  If you would like to find out if you are eligible for this tax break, please contact us immediately.  Tax rules change frequently and can be withdrawn at any time.  This rule will be reviewed in April.

Why use fractional ownership?
Are you interested in the potential of investing in property overseas, but not in the position to afford a whole property?

Are you an existing investor who wants to diversify and spread your risk over several overseas properties?

Do you and a group of family, friends or colleagues want to purchase an investment or shared holiday home overseas?

Whether your aim for ownership is capital growth, from one of the latest emerging markets such as Turkey, or even a guaranteed income or use of a holiday home, Edison Ford can help.

If needed, Edison Ford will help you find like-minded investors or individuals who are interested in achieving the same goals from an overseas property. Edison Ford will then assist you with the set-up of the fractional ownership on your chosen property, with every aspect of the process being fully managed by Edison Ford’s dedicated property team.

Given that each destination around the globe has different purchase processes and nuances, the exact process for establishing fractional ownership will vary. For further information on the opportunities currently available, or to enquire whether a property you have in mind could be purchased using Fractional Ownership, please submit an enquiry now.

The benefits of fractional ownership:
  • Given the flexibility of this method of owning property, you can get involved from as little as £10,000!
  • Owning a share in an overseas property in the right location can provide you with excellent exposure to growth and/or income, on a limited budget.
  • Fractional ownership can enable you to invest in a variety of opportunities, thus diversifying your portfolio and spreading any risk associated with investing overseas.
  • Fractional ownership can allow you to save money on your holidays, without the need to purchase a whole property.
Investment example

Fractional ownership investment example

In this simple example, a Turkish property with a market value of £70,000, can be purchased by four parties, each owning an equal 25% share in the property. The cost of each share has been estimated at £19,000 in this case, to include the £17,500 capital required for the property itself and also the costs associated with both establishing the fractional ownership and purchasing the property, likely to be a total of 8-9% in Turkey.

In this simple example, the parties will purchase the property jointly, via a single purchase contract, which will then be supported by the necessary partnership agreements. In the Turkish market, where it is perfectly secure to establish ownership in this way, the normal purchase costs incurred by an individual buying a property, will be split between the four parties, making this a very cost effective purchase method.

Current example
Edison Ford have a range of opportunities available ‘off the shelf’, including a small block of 4 luxurious 2 bedroom apartments, in their own private gated area, within a small exclusive site. These 4 properties have their own private pool, in addition to the sites beautiful infinity pool. At a combined asking price of £275,000, any one property, combination, or the group of 4 properties can be purchased using fractional / shared ownership.
