5.0 out of 5 stars How to Avoid Property Tax, 26 Sep 2005
By Angela Stevenson (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This book really has been indispensable for us over the last few months. My husband and I made the decision last year to buy several properties, with the hope that eventually these would provide a good income when we retire. After seeking some advice we went ahead but neither of us knew much about the tax side of things.

How to Avoid Property Tax has helped us out on so many different matters, and must have saved us a fortune already in consultancy fees and tax. Particularly useful, I found, was the large amount of information explaining all the expenses we can claim against our tax - the list is huge.

Thankfully we have now got all our affairs under control, and running smoothly. We are considering venturing into commercial property to a limited extent, and again this book has proven hugely helpful.

It really does come very highly recommended, due to the wide range of tax issues covered and the high level of detail the author has crammed into each chapter. It is very well written and easy to understand - which is always good for people like me who have no prior experience in these matters!

Many Thanks.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fasinating read, 19 Nov 2004
A property investor friend told me about How to Avoid Property by Carl Bayley so I decided to buy a copy for myself.

I must say this book's certainly worth every penny. It has lots of clear advice on how to pay less income tax and capital gains tax on your property investments and tells you precisely what you can and cannot do.

It's also easy to read with lots of clear examples which makes a change from other tax books!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to understand tax advice, great book., 4 Jul 2006
I don't usually write reviews but feel compelled to write one about this fantastic book.
Apart from being the only tax book I've read that's written in plain English, just one small tip in the capital gains tax section has saved me a stack of money - £8,000 to be precise. Every property investor should have this little gem on their bookshelf.
