Capital Gains Tax Services

Capital Gains Tax Experts provides specialist capital gains tax services UK individuals, landlords, business owners and investors turn to when they sell or transfer property, shares, or a business. Our advisers have spent over a decade helping clients calculate liabilities correctly, claim every relief they are entitled to, and meet HMRC’s reporting deadlines without unnecessary penalties. Each service below has its own dedicated page covering eligibility, current rates, worked examples and the exact steps involved.

Whether you are selling a single buy-to-let, disposing of a family business, liquidating a share portfolio, or managing an estate as an executor, getting the calculation wrong can mean paying HMRC more than the law actually requires — or, just as damaging, missing the 60-day reporting deadline and facing automatic penalties and interest. Capital gains tax rules changed again for the 2026/27 tax year, with different rates applying to residential property, other assets, and gains that qualify for Business Asset Disposal Relief, so getting up-to-date, UK-specific advice matters more than ever.

Our approach starts with a free, no-obligation consultation where we review your situation, identify every relief and allowance you are entitled to, and give you a fixed quote before any work begins. There are no hourly rates and no surprise invoices. Once instructed, we prepare your computation, check it against HMRC’s current guidance, and either file your return directly or hand you a clear, ready-to-submit report — whichever you prefer.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to pay Capital Gains Tax on everything I sell?
No. CGT only applies to gains above your Annual Exempt Amount, and certain assets — including your main home in most cases — can qualify for reliefs that reduce or remove the liability entirely. We identify exactly which reliefs apply to you before any figures are finalised.

How quickly do I need to report a property sale?
UK residential property sales that trigger a CGT liability must usually be reported to HMRC and any tax paid within 60 days of completion. Missing this window results in automatic penalties, so we recommend contacting us as soon as a sale is agreed, not after completion.

Do you charge fixed fees?
Yes. Every quote is agreed upfront in writing before we start work, so you know exactly what you will pay regardless of how complex your case turns out to be.
