Yes good question

Same vendor, or connected vendors (husband or wife, same family, etc). Happy to discuss! Please feel free to email me: jlangton@ctatax.uk.com

Hi there, there is a possible saving here! Please could you email jlangton@ctatax.uk.com and one of our advisers will be in touch to gain more information, this is a free review. Regards, James

Of course there is self-interest. Why would you bother to build or invest in property if it's no longer commercially viable? We have a problem of demand outstripping supply, how would stopping more property come to the market solve this? James

Excellent view!

Hi, we've been doing these videos for the last 3 years, and we've been correct each time! :)

​​@@CornerstoneTaxNo you very obviously haven't been right every year! Last year you said 5-8% rise, the market actually fell. Just check your own videos (although I suspect they'll now be removed)

@@purplebadgers8375 Hi, we haven't removed any videos! They are still there James

What % do you think they will increase this year?

@@CornerstoneTax Not too sure BUT a crash like Margaret Thatchers time is VERY unlikely too happen...too many economies are interlinked so a major crash here will no doubt effect economies there..

More homes need to be built!

If property prices crashed 50% you'd be lucky to get a mortgage until things settle. In the meantime cash rich investment companies / individuals would hoover up all the distressed sales and the would government pull out all stops to reignite the housing market. Prices would then recover and the last people that could take advantage is average Joe. This happened after the 2008 liquidity crisis to some extent. Retaining higher interest rates would be the best outcome because it'll reduce affordability for both private and investment purposes and bring down prices.

@@stumac869 I see... So what's the solution to the current predicament (where Joe Average can't afford to get on the property ladder or have any hope of owning their own home)? Perhaps let free-market forces do their thing? Perhaps the government should stop implementing these "schemes" that artificially prop up the UK house prices? BTW - I'm saying this as someone who owns a property in central London. It was being rented out at £2,000 a month in 2020, today it's £4,500 a month. I left the UK back in 2020, best move I ever made.

The reality is if property values crashed by 50% you wouldn’t get a mortgage & the properties would get snapped up by investment groups & hedge funds then values would recover meanwhile rental prices would continue increasing! Be careful what you wish for! 🙄🤦‍♂️

Sadly, not something that would ever convincedly happen!

@@CornerstoneTax True. It's the main reason why we moved out of the UK. We just felt like you don't really get what you pay for there, and we were right!

It would be good for first-time home buyers who work regular jobs and who are not earning 6 figure salaries.

@@MnemonicCarrier true

If prices house prices crashed, that wouldn't be in isolation without serious detrimental impact to other parts of the economy. And those regular jobs might no longer exist....

Agree!

Thank-you! James

Hi! This is a one time payment, due within 14 days of your property purchase. James

@@CornerstoneTax thank you

Hi! Thank-you for the comment! What other videos would you like us to create? James

We agree! Do you think the market will drop next year?

Hi! Yes, potentially up to 5% but there may be other reliefs available to reduce it below 5%. Please feel free to email me if you wish to discuss as the details on what you are buying to check if the property qualifies as uninhabitable in the first place to see if there are any other savings available. jlangton@ctatax.uk.com is my email address Regards, James

Hi! I've just looked at it again, and it is indeed correct :) James @@harjbachra24

Yes thanks

Hi there, Actually we do! A family member who had to be moved out after the landlord refused to fix defects. What we're saying is there's good and bad on both sides and yet the narrative always seems to be about Landlords as a group.

Is it possible to book consultation please?

Hi there, thanks for your comment! We enjoy all discussions regarding the UK property market.

We'll be back to you in December to tell you whether we are right or wrong! Regards, James

Thank-you! A great experience

Hi there, Relatively little to create a NewCo, converting an existing Co will depend on its history to date - losses, liabilities, current value etc. If you'd like assistance with this, please do feel free to contact me via email jlangton@ctatax.uk.com and I can offer a free-obligation conversation with one of our tax advisers. Regards, James

Of course, it's a no obligation basis. Please feel free to email or call us: Email: newbusiness@ctatax.uk.com Phone: 01858 894349 Regards, James

Hi thanks for your comment. It seems a little early to say the predictions are wrong when we're only 6 months into the year. We will resist the temptation to say the matter is still up in the air..but can comment that one of our staff recently sold their house to a Honk Kong based investor for cash.....so maybe it's the numbers that are misleading?

...or maybe the numbers were spot on and it was you who were misleading people. It's now 1/1/2024, there was no bounce, no rush of foreign investors and prices are down. Who could have predicted that...!

thanks for your comment! She was great to interview.

Hi Daniel, thank-you for your comment! I shall pass it on to David. Regards, James
