While some agencies have been working for over a decade to decrease their footprint as they have embraced telework and remote work since that time, continuing to shrink the real estate footprint will be difficult to do with the post-pandemic return to office effort, especially in the NCR/DMV. Return to office efforts, in some cases, require an increase of office space because there isn't enough space for the growth that occurred over the past decade in those agencies that embraced office sharing/hoteling due to TW/remote work. You can't have it both ways.

🚨 Scottish Budget 2024: ADS Increased to 8% 🚨 Shona Robison’s Scottish Budget has raised the Additional Dwelling Supplement (ADS) by 2%, now at 8%, effective 5th December 2024. This applies to second homes and buy-to-let properties, with significant financial implications. 💷 On a £200,000 property, the ADS increase means an extra £4,000 in tax. Transitional arrangements offer limited relief, but many buyers may still face unexpected costs. 💡 Unintended consequences: If your property sale falls through and you temporarily own two homes, you’ll be liable for ADS – even if you plan to sell your existing property later. Our experienced solicitors in North Berwick and Dunbar are here to help you navigate these changes and manage your property transactions. 📞 Get in touch today for expert advice! https://lnkd.in/eipVqCPr #PropertyLaw #ScotlandBudget #ADS #LBTT #TaxAdvice

A great summary of the key points for property investors from that budget 🏆

We have all been holding our breath waiting to see what Rachel Reeves will announce in the UK Autumn Budgets 2024 and how it will affect our investors. Main points of interest: ·     Stamp duty surcharge on seconds homes is to increase from 3% to 5%. A rise that surprisingly that will enforce from tomorrow. This will add more pressure on landlords and the buy-to-let market. ·     Stamp Duty Land Tax is to increase. ·     Capital Gains Tax will increase, new rates set at up to 18% for lower rate taxpayers and 24% for higher rate, however residential property rates remain unaffected, which is good news for investors. ·     Inheritance tax threshold will remain the frozen until 2030. Our team are working on pulling together a more detailed analysis which will be circulated with our clients tomorrow. My thoughts on the budgets are, that the UK property market will continue to thrive and as we have seen over the last 20 years in business, supply and demand for rental properties in the UK will always mean Buy-to-Let properties are a much needed part of our economy.
