My wife and I have 5 mixed-use (shop with flats on single freehold title) properties that we've been renting out as a partnership for 30 years.
Our children are now 29 and 24 years old and we would like them to share in both the ownership and profits.
We would like to keep tax costs to a minimum, whilst gifting enough equity for them to legitimately share in the rental income.
We are currently in the process of remortgaging the portfolio, so we thought it might be a good opportunity to make any Land Registry changes simultaneously as interest in the properties are being transferred from the previous lender to the new one.
We would also like to do as much as possible to mitigate IHT in this whole exercise as well.
I'm sure this would pose many questions to people in-the-know, but those that I can think of are:-
1. What's the minimum equity-share that the children can own to be eligible for taking an agreed portion of rents?
2. Would they need to be joint borrowers?
3. Could this be done as a P.E.T?
I have been told that the best way of getting the children involved - and at a NIL cost for SDLT, CGT and IHT - is via a hybrid LLP and Ltd Co. but I cannot get my head around that whatsoever!
P.S
I know Maths is usually the person who very generously comes to everyone's help but I appreciate that this is business and it's quite involved so I would be happy to pay for advice on this one - whether as a fee or as a donation to a charity.
