There are lots of complex elements to Inheritance Tax, and getting the correct advice can save a lot of stress during an often difficult time.
Can I reduce the amount of tax I pay?
In short, yes.
Taxes unfortunately are inevitable, but there are lots of ways you can lessen the amount you’ll have to pay. That’s where a good accountant comes in. Trivial benefits, business expenses, capital allowances, pensions contributions ya-da, ya-da. We won’t bore you with the jargon but there are plenty of options that allow you to reduce the bill you pay to HMRC. A good tax advisor will make you aware of these way ahead of time and help you put in the necessary steps so you can take advantage of them proactively rather than letting the opportunity pass. We’ll also explain it in simple terms that a real life person can understand so you don’t have to be a HMRC-created automaton.
Why do we only use Xero?
Xero to Hero. Yes, it's fair to say we love Xero.

What is the 'App Stack' ?
You might have heard this one bandied around by accountants before, and no, we're not talking about Angry Birds.
The App Stack is a fancy way of talking about the apps you choose as part of your Finance Function. The best way to picture it is similar to a smartphone. In this example, let’s imagine Xero is your smartphone. It’s the main platform that we use, it houses everything and bring it all together in one place. Just as you can download apps onto your smartphone, you can also add other apps to Xero depending on what functionality you want. There are all kinds of Apps that integrate with Xero, from receipt scanning, to invoice chasing, cashflow forecasting, e-commerce and management accounting. All of these apps integrate with Xero and give you even more information about your business.
