When do you need Capital Gains Tax advice?

You may need Capital Gains Tax advice when you sell, transfer, gift or otherwise dispose of an asset that has increased in value. This commonly includes buy-to-let property, a second home, inherited property, land, shares, crypto, investment portfolios and certain business assets.

The correct tax position depends on the asset, ownership history, acquisition cost, improvement expenditure, sale costs, available losses, residence position and reliefs. For UK residential property, there may also be a separate reporting deadline before your normal Self Assessment date.

CGT reporting deadlines

Capital Gains Tax deadlines and late reporting risks

UK residential property disposals often have a separate reporting requirement. Any Capital Gains Tax due on UK residential property normally needs to be reported and paid within 60 days of completion. This can be separate from the normal Self Assessment deadline.

Non-residents disposing of UK property or land must also report UK property and land disposals to HMRC, even if there is no tax to pay. Missing a CGT deadline can result in penalties and interest.

Important Capital Gains Tax points

60 days

Usual reporting and payment deadline for UK residential property disposals after completion.

Annual exemption

The annual exempt amount depends on the tax year and personal circumstances.

Self Assessment

Some gains must also be reported on your Self Assessment tax return.

Non-resident

Non-residents must report UK property and land disposals even where no tax is due.

Why use a tax accountant for Capital Gains Tax?

A Capital Gains Tax calculation can involve more than deducting purchase price from sale price. The correct position may depend on acquisition costs, legal fees, estate agent fees, improvement expenditure, ownership percentages, reliefs, losses, tax bands, residence position and whether a 60-day return has already been filed.

We help you avoid common CGT errors

  • Missing improvement costs or incidental sale costs
  • Using the wrong ownership percentage
  • Ignoring Private Residence Relief or occupation history
  • Missing the 60-day UK property reporting deadline
  • Forgetting to include the gain on Self Assessment where required
  • Incorrect reporting for non-resident UK property disposals

Our CGT process

A clear process from disposal review to HMRC reporting

We keep the process structured so you know what information is needed, how the gain is calculated and what needs to be reported to HMRC.

CGT workflow

From disposal facts to filing

We begin with the disposal date, ownership history, purchase cost, sale value and any HMRC deadline. This keeps the calculation focused and avoids missing important CGT details.

Once the figures are prepared, you review the calculation before anything is filed or submitted to HMRC.

Initial disposal review

We review what was sold or transferred, the completion date, ownership history and reporting deadline.

02

Document checklist

We request purchase details, sale documents, costs, improvement records and ownership evidence.

03

CGT calculation

We calculate the gain, review reliefs and losses, and estimate the tax due based on the facts provided.

Reporting and filing

We help report the gain through the UK property service or Self Assessment, depending on what is required.

Common questions

Capital Gains Tax Accountant Telford FAQs

Do I need to report Capital Gains Tax when I sell a property?

You may need to report and pay Capital Gains Tax if you sell a UK residential property that is not fully covered by reliefs, such as a buy-to-let property, second home or property that has not always been your main residence.

What is the 60-day Capital Gains Tax return?

The 60-day CGT return is the UK property reporting requirement for many residential property disposals. Where tax is due, the gain normally needs to be reported and paid within 60 days of completion.

Can you calculate Capital Gains Tax before I sell?

Yes. We can prepare an estimated Capital Gains Tax calculation before completion, which can help you understand the likely tax due and decide how to manage the sale, records and payment position.

Can you help with Private Residence Relief?

Yes. We can review the ownership history, occupation periods, rental periods and evidence to assess whether Private Residence Relief or final period relief may reduce the taxable gain.

Do non-residents need to report UK property gains?

Non-residents disposing of UK property or land generally need to report the disposal to HMRC, even if no tax is due. The calculation may involve rebasing, valuation evidence and Self Assessment reporting.

Can Capital Gains Tax be reported through Self Assessment?

Some gains are reported through Self Assessment. UK residential property gains may also need a separate property CGT return first. We can help determine which reporting route applies and reconcile the position where needed.

Can I get an instant quote for Capital Gains Tax work?

Yes. You can use our instant quote page for an initial fee indication. If the disposal is complex, involves multiple owners, non-residence, valuation issues, relief claims or HMRC penalties, we may need to review the facts before confirming the final fee.
