About The " Which?" Guide to Giving and Inheriting
When
making lifetime gifts, or passing on wealth to your heirs,
it's easy to overlook the tax consequences. As a result gifts
are too often wrapped in an unnecessary tax bill. Also, following
several years of rising house prices, inheritance tax can
bite deeply into even modest estates. Yet with forward planning,
in many cases a tax bill can be reduced or avoided altogether.
This guide explains how to plan your giving and shows you
how to use tax rules efficiently to ensure that your gift
reaches the right person and is not unnecessarily taxed. It
includes handy calculators, numerous examples and sections
on popular themes such as giving away your home, making gifts
to children and grandchildren, and using trusts.
