KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • If the company is paying a dividend then this can be used to fund education
  • You can claim any expenses if they are wholly and exclusively for the business
  • New training when you start out in property can’t be claimed but someone who is undertaking continuing professional development can claim for the training costs
  • Keep a record of any online training and free training you undertake
  • When you loan money to your company it can stay there as long as you want it to, there is no time limit
  • If you borrow money from your company you have to pay interest to the company for borrowing the funds
  • If the company lends you money you must repay the funds within nine months of the year end or pay tax
  • 10% is a reasonable charge for interest on a loan to a company
  • You have a personal allowance for each year but if you don’t use it, you lose it.
  • The beauty of a limited company is you only pay tax on the money you take out
  • If you are a sole trader you will pay tax on everything
  • Generally, the best way to take out money is through a low salary and dividends
