Taking Charge Of Your Future
It always makes sense to have plans in place to safeguard the financial security of your loved ones should something happen to you. By investing in life insurance coverage, you’ll have a safety net to protect your family should the worst happen. Getting inheritance tax advice and writing a will can also help with this. Contact Equity Release Advice to learn more about how I can help you.
If you pass away without writing a will, then there is a chance that your estate may not go to the people you wanted, or get shared the way you want it to. The lack of a will makes the process slow, and your family might have to deal with an additional financial burden while mourning the death of a loved one. Estate planning allows you to have a say in what goes to whom and how all your property gets shared.
If you are lucky enough to have a sizeable estate, then inheritance tax is something that you need to keep in mind. The amount an individual can bequeath free of IHT (called the ‘nil rate band’) is currently £325,000 for 2020-21 (www.gov.uk). After that, your worldwide estate (including property) is taxable at 40% on any excess over the nil rate band. For couples – and dependant on what occurs on the first death – the threshold for the second spouse/civil partner could be up to £650,000. You can also make use of numerous IHT-exempt gift allowances during your lifetime.
