About this book


Inheritance Tax (IHT) is a 'stealth' tax that more and more of us need to plan for. As the value of property has shot up, so has the likelihood that the value of your estate will exceed the current IHT 'nil-rate band' threshold.

IHT is in effect a voluntary tax - you can take measures to reduce significantly your liability and so pass on your hard-earned money and property to your family, rather than letting it go to HM Treasury after your death.

This book by award winning firm H M Williams Chartered Accountants takes you through the ways of reducing your Inheritance Tax liability. They have worked in conjunction with Christchurch Consultancy, specialist Inheritance Tax advisers, in preparing this book.

This 2007/08 edition was updated in April 2007 to take into account the changes in the recent Budget.
