About this lesson

This video covers the pooling of all UK property profits and losses, how to claim relief in the current period against total profits, and the carry-forward rules that apply when losses exceed current year profits. Crucially, you'll understand why property losses must be offset before trade losses—because trade losses offer more flexibility with carry-back options, whereas property losses cannot be carried back. This is essential for Taxation (TX) and Advanced Taxation (ATX) papers, where loss relief strategy directly impacts your client advice and exam answers.
