ASSET MANAGEMENT
Our conveyancing department deals with all aspects of residential conveyancing from first time buyers purchasing their first house to experienced property owners selling and buying simultaneously. We also deal with re-mortgage work for clients who wish to re-mortgage their homes to take advantage of the extremely competitive mortgage market.
Asset management covers a variety of areas of Law but has one central theme – ensuring that your wealth works for you during your lifetime and then passes to your chosen beneficiaries in the most tax efficient way possible.
It's not that long ago that inheritance tax was considered only to be a problem for the landed gentry and self made millionaires.
However in the last two decades the incredible rise in property prices, coupled with a rise in standards of living generally, means that now anyone who owns a property potentially has an inheritance tax problem to solve. And if the taxman doesn’t receive a slice of your estate then your local authority may do if you find yourself requiring and having to pay for residential or nursing care.
Asset management is about finding the legal solution that is right for you, from tax efficient Wills and powers of attorney to the creation of trusts and the gifting of assets. It is also about keeping that solution under regular review to ensure that it always meets with your ever changing financial circumstances.
