Money Tips Podcast

The Global Power Shift has begun – The East Has a plan has UK lost the plot? As the West fumbles with political chaos, rising debt, and short-term thinking, the East powers ahead with vision and purpose. Countries like China, Malaysia, and the UAE are investing in infrastructure, education, and long-term strategy—while the UK seems stuck in a loop of tax hikes, red tape, and broken systems.  In this episode, I explore how global power is shifting fast—and why investors, entrepreneurs, and even families are looking East for opportunities, stability, and growth. What can you do to secure your financial future in this changing world? Has Britain lost the plot? Let's find out. Watch full video at Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast - https://youtu.be/_5jK8oHuj8o China's multi-billion dollar ‘Belt and Road Initiative' project is linking three quarters of the world's countries - 150 nations through Road and Maritime former silk routes.  Linking countries like Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and more.  They are building it, not talking about it for 30 years like we do in the UK. Successive governments have been debating expanding London's Heathrow Airport by one runway since the Beatles were together.  Take That and Taylor Swift were not even born!  Rail links across Laos and Cambodia to China allow farmers to deliver produce to the vast Chinese market in 6 days. Trade has exploded in SE Asia from car manufacturing, industry to education and agriculture. What can you do to secure your financial future in this changing world?  Check out my SMART MONEY COURSE - https://bit.ly/4klq0mv  As China expands its influence, where do you think countries in Southeast Asia and the Middle East will look to for its future? America or China?  Who do they see as their friend when China is building trading links while America is ‘weaponizing' the dollar and telling them what to do? Why are more countries applying to join BRICS? Chinese overtook the US as Africa's largest trading partner in 2009. The West (Europe and America) has been asleep at the wheel for decades.  UK previously had strong links with African nations, (many of whom were given Independence after the Second World War as the empire declined), through the commonwealth. But with all due respect to the Royal Family, wheeling out the Queen to wave at the crowds every few years is not enough.  China is running rings around the west.  Unlike western democracies who can only plan as far as the next election, China has a long term vision and strategy.  Look what's happening in the Middle East in countries like Dubai, Qatar and Saudi which are all embarking on massive multibillion-dollar projects to reinvest their oil wealth for their future. They also attracting the brightest and the best entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists and IT people, while the UK is taxing them out of existence.  New World Order?  What do you think? China and many other Southeast Asian countries have a plan. The Middle East has a plan. What is the UK's plan? Tax and spend our money! Tax and spend our savings! Tax and spend our pensions! (Rachel Reeves is doing a Gordon Brown tax raid on pensions.  He bankrupted Britain). Tax business and landlords Tax jobs and employment Tax motorists Tax parents who send their children to private schools! The government is coming after YOUR money! They have already borrowed billions and can't afford to fund their fantasy schemes.  Where is the big thinking and long term vision? Where is the growth, green energy? Really? While they lurch from one crisis to the next, smart people, educated professionals, businesses and entrepreneurs are leaving the UK to go where they are appreciated. Have any of the top ministers ever run a large business? I wouldn't trust them with a market stall? What can you do? As Warren Buffett said, financial education is the key to building wealth. It's the stuff they don't teach you in school.  Learn how to build and protect wealth. Learn how to manage your money. Learn how to invest in assets rather than losing money by lending it to the banks.  Learn about the invisible taxes like inflation which is eating up your savings.  Learn about Gold and Silver, the only real money.

Why I'm Quitting UK Buy-to-Let Property – From Buy-to-Let to Bye-Bye UK: My Property Investment Shift to Malaysia… Watch video on YouTube - https://youtu.be/se1oFAKTNng?si=GVyI-CLWTVlu6uyf After years in the UK buy-to-let property market, I've made the difficult decision to step away. While British property was once a reliable path to wealth, it's no longer what it used to be. Increasing taxes, endless regulations, and government pressure on landlords have made the market unattractive. With Labour pushing for more restrictions and potential rent controls, landlords are squeezed more than ever. So, where else can you go to invest and live well? Some investors are turning to EU countries like Spain and Portugal. However, Spain has slapped a controversial tax on foreign buyers, and Portugal recently pulled the plug on parts of its golden visa scheme. Add bureaucracy and high costs, and Europe is looking less inviting. But here's the good news: there are better alternatives. One of my top recommendations is Malaysia—specifically Kuala Lumpur. Compared to other Southeast Asian destinations like Thailand, Vietnam, or the Philippines, Malaysia offers far better value. Property prices in KL are surprisingly affordable, often cheaper than its neighbours, and the cost of living is about half that of the UK. Malaysia also stands out for its MM2H (Malaysia My Second Home) visa program. This relatively low-cost golden visa allows you to live long-term, invest in property, and enjoy a warm climate year-round. English is widely spoken, the infrastructure is excellent, and crime levels are notably lower than in the UK. What's more, Malaysia is a hub for travel across Asia, with great connections to Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and beyond. You'll enjoy an amazing lifestyle, rich culture, fantastic cuisine, and excellent value—whether you're retiring, investing, or working remotely. In short, I'm moving on from UK property and choosing freedom, lifestyle, and opportunity in Malaysia. Finally, I used an amazing visa agent for the MM2H and estate agent (who is a British Ex-Pat) to help me on my journey. Beware of the sharks and a few scammers. If you are considering Malaysia or Kuala Lumpur, and would like an introduction drop me an email charles@charleskelly.net #UKPropertyCrisis #BuyToLetExodus #MalaysiaMM2H #OverseasInvestment #PropertyAbroad #RetireInAsia #MoveToMalaysia #GlobalInvestor #PropertyTips #CharlesKellyMoneyTips

Please like and subscribe - https://www.youtube.com/@charleskellymoneytipspodca9121 Watch video - Why I’m quitting buy-to-let but not property - Part 2 Update Thanks for the amazing comments from first video! Lots of positive comments from landlords. Some of them agree with me others do not. Several landlords, one who had 60 buy-to-let properties, have already started selling and getting out completely. Many of the comments indicated that there was a general sentiment that the UK, as well as buy-to-let, is finished. Many are planning to leave and quite a few have left already. We already know that a substantial amount of wealth as left the UK and more capital will be transferred out of the country in the coming years. Billions in tax revenue will be lost to the exchequer. Jobs are also being affected by labour’s ‘jobs tax’ with unemployment up and recruiting slowing as employers lose confidence. This comes at a time when jobs are already being lost to outsourcing and AI! What labour don’t get Businesses create wealth – not governments! Businesses create jobs The wealthy already pay more tax than the poor When the wealthy leave, the middle classes and the poor will all have to pay more tax to pay for running the country and servicing the debts and will suffer a lower standard of living. I’ve seen it before in my life under a previous labour government who put up the highest rate of tax to 98% and caused a brain drain. Clarification I’m not getting out of Property just standard buy-to-let AST’s under the new Labour government’s socialist republic. Alternative property strategies Leasing to local authorities or housing providers Rent-to-rent – little or no capital required to start Furnished holiday lets, AIRBNB, Booking.Com etc BRR by refurbish and refinance using other people’s money. There are many more strategies you can learn about by studying under experts who been there and done it before.

No council house building since the 1970s and the introduction of right to buyThe BTL model has worked well since the 1990’s.Properties were relatively cheapReturns were good, even with higher mortgage ratesWith higher interest rates so you could just about break-even, but enjoy fast capital growth Now the government thinks the pendulum swung too far in favour of landlords. Tenants are unhappy about high rents and insecurity. But is that the fault of landlords or a symptom of 50 years of short-term thinking government policy?The buy-to-let boom has led to a massive transfer of wealth into property, as well as the banks, and it seems the ‘powers that be’ want to apply the brakes with legislation and taxes, We are now living in a new socialist regime after 30 years of relatively business friendly government, which includes the Blair labour government. My personal experience30 years dealing with tenants - nothing against tenants, I just haven’t got the patience for it anymore!New threats from various BPU’s (business prevention units)Lack of social housing being built for 50 yearsMass immigration from all governments since the Blair years leading to an unprecedented population explosion Swinging from unrestrictive to tighter lendingPlanning hold-ups leading to housing shortageAnti-landlord policy starting with Conservative Chancellor George Osbourne and his Section 24 landlord taxRenters rights bill, which was born out of a conservative policyEnd of section 21 no fault of evictions and a ban on so-called “back door” evictionsOpen end of tenancies – how is that going to work in practice?New minimum housing standards and more red tape - many councils and large housing associations would fail these standards but only private landlords will be hitBan on Advanced rent payments, often used where tenants fail referencing or are from overseas. Even more rights for tenants Less security for property ownersBan “discrimination” Right to request adaptation of Properties in the case of disabilitiesRestrictions on rent increasesRent repayment ordersMore powers for local councils to sanction landlordsNew digital Landlord database, but no rouge tenant database County court backlogs, meaning that enforced evictions will take up to a year Renters rights was mentioned in parliament recently during PM’s questions after a labour MP raised the point that tenants were being priced out by landlords. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said that his new renter’s rights bill will help 11 million tenants. He said they will end no fault of action something which the Conservatives had failed to do. . Landlords could be obliged to take pets and tenants on benefits Over the past year, only 6.6% of room-offered ads on SpareRoom explicitly welcomed pets, while a striking 93.4% did not. One third of people in the UK have pets and 29% own a cat. On a Spare room survey 93% of landlords display that they are unwilling to accept pets, this will be banned under the future law. If a tenant wants to keep a pet at home, landlords will not be able to unreasonably withhold their consent. If a tenant feels you’ve made an unfair decision they can challenge it by taking their complaint to the Private Rented Sector Ombudsman or even to court. Falling returns Soaring house prices means it’s difficult to get a positive yield on straightforward buy-to-let propertyLandlords have turned to HMO strategies, but local authorities are introducing more article 4 areas.The yields on properties in London and the Southeast have been driven down by high prices. Landlords are increasingly buying in the Midlands and the north of England, but who wants to drive 300 miles to find and manage property? Many have adapted and move into furnished Holiday lettings in order to avoid section 24 and the end of section 21 notices, but now the BPU are heading them off at the pass! Tax changes abolishing the advantages of furnished holiday Lettings , brought in by Jeremy “Hunt” the left leaning former Chancellor under the last ‘high tax’ conservative government. I know some landlord I’ve spoken to are happy to stay in the market and feel that they can adapt to the new laws. That’s fine there’s still a profit (sorry if that’s a dirty word, but without profit there is no service) to be made and in a long-term it’s still a good investment, but not for me and thousands of other landlords anymore. As the TV Dragons say, I’m out! Am I quitting property altogether? No! Property is still a good long-term investment and will survive the idiots that run the country downwards because the markets and demand will prevail. Despite warnings of our demise, the UK will also survive the fools in power.

Nigel Farage has once again ignited controversy, this time turning his sights on the UK’s House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) sector. Speaking out this week at a Reform press conference in Dover, Farage claimed that HMOs are not only damaging communities but are increasingly being used to house illegal migrants and asylum seekers, often at the taxpayer’s expense. Watch video - https://youtu.be/NKaPZj-APgw Farage, who could become the next UK Prime Minister according to the polls and recent local election results, argued that the rapid growth of HMOs—particularly in urban areas—is "a symptom of a failed immigration and housing policy." He criticised how private landlords and government contracts are turning residential streets into overcrowded multi-let properties, undermining local cohesion and public services. While HMOs can be a profitable property strategy, especially for landlords seeking higher yields, they’ve become controversial. Local residents often complain about noise, rubbish, overcrowding, parking and falling property values. Councils have responded with Article 4 directions and tougher licensing schemes. Is this another nail in the coffin for buy-to-let property investment, and further reasons for landlords to get out of the UK property market? In recent years, landlords have had to contend with: Section 24 landlord tax – watch accountant explain tax and solutions - https://youtu.be/aMuGs_ek17s Increased tax and Increased red tape and regulation.

Donald Trump’s return to the spotlight and renewed talk of tariffs and trade wars has investors wondering: Will this trigger a stock market crash in 2025? As Trump vows to impose tougher tariffs on China and other countries, fears of rising inflation, global trade tensions, and supply chain disruptions are resurfacing. Historically, Trump’s tariff policies had mixed effects. Some U.S. industries benefited, but overall market volatility increased. The stock market reacted to trade war headlines with sharp dips and recoveries. If a new Trump trade war begins, sectors like tech, automotive, and manufacturing could feel the pinch first, while defensive stocks and commodities may perform better. Investors are asking: Should I sell now? Will Trump crash the stock market again? While no one can predict with certainty, smart investors diversify and prepare for volatility. Watch how China, the EU, and the Fed respond.

US Tariffs could lead to a trade war and a global economic slowdown, according to the OECD. China, Mexico, Canada and the EU have said they will be imposing reciprocal tariffs on America. The UK has yet to react to a “reciprocal” 10% Tariff announced by Donald Trump today in the White House Rose Garden. Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer said a trade war is in nobody’s interest. Stock markets have been falling around the world putting millions of people’s savings and pension pots at risk of a correction or even a crash.

The number of UK buy-to-let property companies listed at Companies House has soared to record levels since George Osbourne introduced his ‘Section 24’ tax bombshell on landlords. If you are stuck in the Section 24 tax trap contact me at charles@charleskelly.net to arrange a free consultation with a property tax specialist. There are now over 400,000 limited property companies registered, more than any other businesses and four times as many as fast food firms. Since 2016 there has been a fourfold rise in incorporated buy-to-let businesses, much of which is due to George Osbourne’s ‘Section 24’ tax hike on landlords. The change in the law meant that buy-to-let landlords with properties held in their own names could no longer offset mortgage interest against their rent (pre-profit gross income). Almost 700,000 properties are now held in limited companies, rather than in individual names, which has become the standard method used to buy investment property in the UK.

The Bank of England cut base interest rates from 4.75% to 4.5% in February, their lowest level for 18 months and raising hopes of further cuts in 2025. But now inflation has reared its ugly head again with an unexpected rise to 3%, largely driven by higher government borrowing and spending, as well as public sector pay rises. See video version - https://youtu.be/7Sc0oL4BHdM Mortgage holders and property buyers were hoping that the Bank of England would continue cutting rates this year and whilst this could still happen there is unlikely to be a further cut when the bank’s monetary committee meets on 20 March. Higher interest rates have a direct impact on how much you can borrow to buy a property, as the banks apply strict affordability criteria. However, the government has talked about easing mortgage lending to stimulate the flagging market and help first time buyers. Higher stamp duty does NOTHING to help people who want to buy their own home.

The price of precious metals like gold, sliver and platinum have soared in price in the last 12 month amid market fears and rising inflation. Why Invest in Gold and Silver? See full video - https://youtu.be/or-8kiTZZxM See my interview with Josh Saul, gold expert, discussing the merits of including precious metals in your portfolio. Click here https://pure-gold.co/charles-kelly for a free gold, investment report, and discovery call. In the ever-evolving landscape of investment opportunities, the age-old appeal of precious metals like gold and silver remains steadfast. Investors are often confronted with a myriad of choices, ranging from the digital allure of cryptocurrencies to the stability of stocks and the tangibility of real estate. In this comparison, we explore why investing in gold and silver continues to be a compelling option compared to the alternatives. Watch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/woBQBtavLUM 1. Historical Stability: Gold and silver have stood the test of time as reliable stores of value. Throughout history, these precious metals have retained their purchasing power, acting as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties. Unlike cryptocurrencies, which can be highly volatile, and stocks, which are subject to market fluctuations, gold and silver have maintained a reputation for stability. 2. Tangibility and Security: One of the key advantages of investing in physical gold and silver is the tangible nature of these assets. Unlike cryptocurrencies, which exist only in the digital realm, and stocks, which represent ownership but lack a physical presence, gold and silver can be held in hand. This tangibility not only provides a sense of security but also ensures that investors have a physical asset they can access irrespective of economic conditions. 3. Diversification: While stocks and real estate have their merits, they can be vulnerable to economic downturns. Gold and silver, on the other hand, often move inversely to other asset classes, providing an effective means of diversification. A well-diversified portfolio that includes precious metals can potentially mitigate risks and enhance overall stability. 4. Inherent Value: Gold and silver derive their value from their intrinsic properties rather than relying on the perceived value assigned by market sentiment, as is often the case with stocks and cryptocurrencies. The industrial uses of silver, for example, contribute to its value beyond its role as a precious metal. This intrinsic value can offer a certain level of reassurance to investors, especially during times of economic uncertainty. 5. Inflation Hedge: Gold and silver have a long-established reputation as effective hedges against inflation. When fiat currencies lose value due to inflationary pressures, the purchasing power of gold and silver tends to rise. This characteristic makes them particularly attractive to investors seeking to protect their wealth from the eroding effects of inflation. While the investment landscape continues to evolve with the emergence of new opportunities such as cryptocurrencies, the enduring appeal of gold and silver remains undeniable. These precious metals offer stability, tangibility, diversification, inherent value, and a time-tested hedge against inflation. Investors looking for a reliable and proven store of value should consider the enduring allure of gold and silver as foundational elements of a well-rounded investment portfolio.

The U.S. economy is being hailed by President Donald Trump as entering a "Golden Age" as it capitalizes on innovations in technology, renewable energy, and manufacturing reshoring. With record-low unemployment and robust GDP growth, the U.S. is setting a strong example for global markets. But what does this mean for the UK economy? Watch video version - https://youtu.be/ZyAPSXa8Ie8 Implications for the UK Investment Shift: U.S. growth could attract international investment, potentially diverting funds away from the UK. This might impact British businesses reliant on foreign capital. Export Challenges: A stronger U.S. dollar could make UK goods more expensive in American markets, posing challenges for exporters. However, UK firms may benefit by importing cheaper U.S.-made goods. Inflation Impact: Rising U.S. demand for commodities like energy and metals might drive up global prices, influencing UK inflation rates. Opportunities for the UK The U.S. Golden Age could also provide opportunities, such as increasing demand for UK services in finance, education, and tech partnerships. Collaboration, such as a favourable trade deal, between the nations could foster mutual economic benefits.

Like a patient on the operating table with no pulse, the UK economy is barely growing. Prime Minister, Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves are desperately banging on the chest of the patient trying to revive it, but they don’t know how to bring it back to life. December figures show that the economy barely grew by just 0.1%. They talk of growth, but where is it going to come from? 10,000 millionaires have quit the UK in the last six months! China’s economy grew by 5% last year. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/FgXuoDMFE3c Retail sales were down in December! I’ve never heard of retail sales falling over Christmas. More inflation is expected as UK borrowing costs and bond yields have risen sharply. The country’s additional borrowing costs will run to £12 billion per annum. Paid by us, taxpayers of course. Governments screw up, we foot the bill. This could mean higher interest rates and higher mortgage costs for all of us at a time, and the Bank of England should be cutting rates. The market has lost confidence in the UK chancellor Rachel Reeves. She is out of her depth and reminds me the person that talks a good game and job interview but in reality hasn’t got a clue when they’ve got the job. Labour have got off to the worst start and any government I’ve never known. They want to give away the Chagos islands to Mauritius, and then lease it back at a cost of £9 billion! I’ve heard of sale and leaseback, but not “give” and leaseback. This will surely be remembered as the Prime Minister’s “Gordon Brown” moment. Gordon Brown was the Labour chancellor who sold off the U.K.’s gold reserves to China at rock bottom prices. Gold has risen by at least 10 times since the ill-fated sell-off. They inexplicably cut the small winter fuel allowance for millions of pensioners, taxed private school fees, and raised national insurance costs for employers, taxed our farmers and borrowed an additional £145 billion, all of which have made them hugely unpopular. And yet, the FT 100 index, reached a record level today! Apparently they expect interest rates to be cut by 0.25% when the Bank of England meet next month Will the Bank of England hold or cut rates next month? The implications are huge for the country and for the 700,000 borrowers who will come off fixed interest rates this year, as well as the first-time buyers who want to go on the property ladder. Buy to let property investment has become almost unviable, unless you have a large deposit or buying cheap properties up in the north-east. Some good news could be on the horizon for first time buyers as regulators are expected to relax lending rules. However, could this lead to another boom and bust? The massive building firm Taylor Wimpey has reported good profits of over £400 million last year and they built almost 10,000 new homes. Perhaps labours plan to relax planning rules will bring more homes onto the housing market. China What is going on between Labour and China? Why did Rachel Reeves desert her post at the time of the bond crisis last week? What are they given away for China to buy UK bonds? The Chinese government does not give anything without expecting something in return, and they normally bargain very hard. Foreign Secretary, David Lammy is expected to approve a new super embassy for China on the site of the old Royal Mint. Why does any country need a super embassy with hundreds of “diplomats”? Donald Trump could turn the US economy around, but will we get a decent trade deal after labour have alienating themselves from the new president elect? David Lammy, with his personal attacks, labour sending 100 people to America to canvas for Joe Biden during the US elections and now rushing to sign a deal with Mauritius before the presidential inauguration on January 20. Now it appears Labour are getting closer to China. The previous government cooled relations with China over Chinese technology, tensions over Hong Kong and Taiwan, the South China Sea, cyber security and allegations of spying. In summary, the lunatics have taken over the asylum! What does this mean for you? What can we do to cope on a personal level? If you believe we are entering choppy waters and stormy weather, now is the time to batten down the hatches and tighten your belts. This is not the time to purchase an £80,000 car on a lease or buy a fast-food franchise and open up yet another burger bar on the High Street. I’ve seen at least two or three new fast-food outlets or restaurants popping up on the High Street in the last couple of months. They are occupying premises that previous owners of similar businesses who went bust. I’ve talked to some of the business owners, and they are struggling. I walk past their restaurants and see the empty tables. I talk to a lady who opened up to bubble tea outlets and lost all her savings within six months. Her sign is still above the empty shop, which means the landlord has not been able to let the property again. Manage your money and control your spending. Invest wisely. If you’re nearing retirement, I would check with your financial advisor as to where your pension funds are invested. If you are young, I would learn more about AI. AI will kill 300 million jobs worldwide according to a recent report. People already been laid off in the City of London and Wall Street due to the impact of AI. A massive rise in employer national insurance contributions will hardly encourage employers to take on more staff. Worse still, it could lead to redundancies. Could be an easier time for homebuyers, if interest rates fall and the regulators ease the stringent restrictions on mortgage lending. Expect the best but prepare for the worst.

Debt crisis in the bond market Rachel Reeves flies off to China £3 trillion national debt rising by £5170 per second Higher taxes, low investment, slow growth GDP per capital lower that 17 years ago. Is Great Britain Finished? The Debt Crisis Unveiled As the UK faces mounting economic challenges, many are asking, "Is Great Britain finished?" The debt crisis in the bond market, combined with political and economic turmoil, paints a grim picture. Debt Crisis in the Bond Market The national debt has surpassed a staggering £3 trillion and is rising by £5,170 every second. With interest rates climbing, servicing this debt becomes increasingly expensive, putting immense pressure on the government’s budget. The bond market, a critical mechanism for financing this debt, is showing signs of instability as investor confidence wanes. Rachel Reeves Flies to China While Britain’s economic foundations tremble, Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves’s recent visit to China raises questions. Is Britain looking outward for economic salvation, or is this a sign of deeper dependency on foreign powers? Higher Taxes, Low Investment, and Slow Growth The current economic model is under strain. Higher taxes have stifled consumer spending and business investment, leading to sluggish growth. The result? A GDP per capita that is now lower than it was 17 years ago, reflecting stagnation in living standards and economic opportunity. A Nation at a Crossroads With its economic future uncertain, Britain must address these pressing issues. A strategy to boost investment, foster innovation, and balance fiscal policy is essential to restore confidence and drive growth. Subscribe to the Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast for expert insights on navigating today’s financial landscape.

Is Living Abroad for Tax Purposes Really Any Better than the UK? Many Brits dream of living abroad to escape high UK taxes, but is it truly the best financial decision? Moving to tax havens or low-tax countries might seem appealing, but the reality is more complex. Watch video - https://youtu.be/fcFv_rTBr-M 1. Cost of LivingWhile some countries offer lower taxes, the cost of living—housing, healthcare, and daily expenses—can be significantly higher. Places like Dubai or Monaco might save you tax but cost a fortune in rent and lifestyle maintenance. 2. Tax ImplicationsRelocating doesn’t mean you’re off the hook with UK taxes. If you retain assets, investments, or property in the UK, you may still owe taxes under UK laws. Additionally, some countries have hidden taxes or high residency fees. 3. Lifestyle AdjustmentsLeaving the UK means adapting to a new culture, healthcare system, and possibly language barriers. These adjustments can be challenging and costly if poorly planned. The AlternativeBefore packing your bags, explore tax-efficient strategies in the UK. Options like ISAs, pensions, and efficient business structures can reduce your tax burden legally without leaving home. Living abroad for tax purposes isn’t always the financial paradise it seems. Carefully weigh the benefits and costs before making the leap. How will Labour’s new Renters Rights Bill 2024 affect buy-to-let landlords? The Labour Party’s Renters' Rights Bill 2024 is poised to bring significant changes to the UK’s rental market, impacting both tenants and buy-to-let landlords.

Section 21 eviction notices have been served on 150 residents on a block of flats in Deptford, South London, weeks before Christmas. A Section 21 is a legal method for the landlord to require a tenant to leave a rental property without the need to provide a reason for "no-fault" eviction. A tenant can challenge it and stay in the property until physically evicted, but they may incur court costs. Watch full video - https://youtu.be/u-v8WXgpTuo Even with a Section 21 notice, it can take landlords 6 to 12 months to evict a tenant who refuses to move out – often under advice for their local council’s housing or “homeless prevention” department. The owners of the property, the Aitch Group said a Section 21 notice had been issued to tenants at the Vive Living development to "facilitate the refurbishment of the building". "The tenants have been given two months' notice, as a minimum, in accordance with their tenancy agreements.". The eviction notices may have been prompted by Labour’s Renter’s Rights Bill, currently going through Parliament, which will abolish Section 21 “no fault” evictions. Many landlords are quitting the buy-to-let property market or switching to other rental models, such as AIRBNB serviced accommodation or leasing to local authorities and housing associations.

Raising Angel Finance and Venture Capital for Your UK Startup Starting and growing a business often requires substantial funding. For UK entrepreneurs, angel finance and venture capital (VC) are two of the most popular options for scaling a startup. In this episode of the Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast, we break down these funding sources and share how you can access them. Watch video - https://youtu.be/uUuhpoE2lcg What is Angel Finance?Angel investors are high-net-worth individuals who provide funding for startups, typically in exchange for equity. They often invest at earlier stages than VC firms and may also offer mentorship and business connections. Platforms like Seedrs or Angel Investment Network can connect you with UK-based angel investors. What is Venture Capital?VC firms provide larger amounts of funding to businesses with high growth potential. They look for startups that have already proven some traction and scalability. VCs like Index Ventures and LocalGlobe are popular choices in the UK. How to Attract Angel Investors and VCs: Craft a Winning Business Plan: Clearly outline your market opportunity, growth potential, and financial projections. Build a Strong Network: Attend pitch events, startup accelerators, and industry conferences to meet investors. Show Traction: Highlight existing sales, user growth, or partnerships that prove your concept is working.

Is Higher Inflation Good or Bad News for Landlords? Inflation is a hot topic in today’s economy, and as a landlord, you might wonder whether it works in your favour or against you. In the latest episode of the Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast, we explore how rising inflation impacts landlords and what you can do to stay ahead. The Good News: For landlords with fixed-rate mortgages, inflation can actually be beneficial. As inflation rises, the real value of your debt decreases. This means that over time, you’re effectively paying back your mortgage with “cheaper” money. Additionally, in an inflationary environment, property values and rental income often rise, helping you build equity faster and increase your cash flow. Watch video - https://youtu.be/X6GlMT3bZS4 The Challenges: On the flip side, higher inflation can also mean rising costs. Maintenance, repairs, and property management fees are likely to increase, eating into your profits. For landlords with variable-rate mortgages, rising interest rates (often used to combat inflation) can significantly increase monthly payments, impacting your bottom line. What Should Landlords Do? Lock in a Fixed-Rate Mortgage: Protect yourself from rising interest rates. Increase Rents Strategically: Ensure your rental income keeps pace with inflation while maintaining good tenant relationships. Invest in Inflation-Resilient Areas: Look for properties in high-demand locations where rent growth outpaces inflation. Inflation can be both a friend and a foe for landlords. The key is to plan wisely and adapt to economic changes. For more property insights, tune in to the Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast on YouTube!

In the latest episode of Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast, we dive into one of the most powerful personal finance strategies: Pay Yourself First. This simple, yet effective concept can transform your financial future and help you build wealth faster. What does it mean to pay yourself first?  Watch video version - https://youtu.be/BVwkFqJ3iYQ It means prioritizing your savings and investments before spending on anything else. Instead of waiting to see what's left at the end of the month, you set aside a fixed percentage of your income as soon as you get paid. This could be for your emergency fund, retirement account, or investments. By automating this habit, you're ensuring that you're consistently saving and investing for your future. This strategy helps you avoid the common trap of overspending and ensures that you're always moving closer to your financial goals. Whether you're aiming for early retirement, a big purchase, or simply financial security, paying yourself first is the foundation to achieving it. How can you start? Set up an automatic transfer to a savings or investment account the same day you receive your salary. Start with a small percentage and gradually increase it as you get comfortable. Paying yourself first helps you create financial discipline and builds long-term wealth without effort.

As BRICS leaders—representing Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—gather in Russia, discussions around a gold-backed currency reset have gained traction. This move could signal a shift away from the dominance of the US dollar in global trade, potentially reshaping the global financial system. BRICS nations have long advocated for a more multipolar financial landscape, with less reliance on the dollar. A gold-backed currency could provide a stable alternative, reducing currency volatility and inflation risks. For countries like Russia and China, which hold significant gold reserves, this could increase their financial influence. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/gdWMFep1DCM What Would a BRICS Gold-Backed Currency Mean? 1. Currency Stability: Pegging currency value to gold can reduce inflation and provide stability, especially in volatile markets. 2. Impact on the US Dollar: A successful gold-backed currency could challenge the US dollar's dominance in global trade, potentially weakening its value. 3. Investment Implications: Investors might see a shift towards gold as a safe-haven asset, with potential impacts on forex markets and commodity prices.   As the world watches these developments, individuals and businesses alike must consider the potential impact on savings, investments, and future financial planning.  As of 2024, numerous countries have expressed interest in joining the BRICS bloc, with over 40 nations considering membership and 15 formally applying. These include countries from various regions like Kazakhstan, Belarus, Pakistan, Cuba, Palestine, and Turkey, which officially applied in 2024. The growing interest in BRICS stems from its potential to offer an alternative to global organizations typically dominated by Western powers. In the upcoming BRICS Summit in Kazan, Russia, further expansion discussions will take place, with countries like Algeria, Azerbaijan, and Thailand among potential new members. BRICS currently has nine members: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and the recent additions—Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, and the UAE, who joined on January 1, 2024. The bloc is seen as a potential counterbalance to the influence of Western economic powers, particularly in global financial and trade matters.

As the Governor of the Bank of England, Andrew Bailey, tells the Guardian that the Bank could be a “bit more aggressive” at cutting borrowing costs, depending on the rate of inflation, the question borrowers are asking is should I opt for a fixed rate mortgage rate or wait until base rates fall? The Bank reduced base interest rates from 5.25% to 5% in August, the first drop in cut in four years. However, Mr Bailey warned that the Bank was monitoring developments in the Middle East "extremely closely", as any movement in oil prices that could fuel inflation. With rising interest rates in the UK, many homeowners are asking, "Should I fix my mortgage rate now or wait until base rates fall?" This decision can have a significant impact on your monthly payments and overall financial situation, so it's crucial to weigh the pros and cons. For investors with rental properties in their own names, the Section 24 landlord tax forcing landlords to rethink buy-to-let, but the is a solution. Watch YouTube video: https://youtu.be/aMuGs_ek17s  The Case for Fixing Your Mortgage Rate Fixing your mortgage rate can provide peace of mind, as it locks in your monthly payments for a set period—usually 2, 5, or even 10 years. This means that if interest rates continue to rise, you won't be affected. It's a popular option for homeowners who want stability and to budget more effectively. Current rates may seem high compared to a few years ago, but they could rise even further. By fixing now, you can avoid potential increases in mortgage repayments. Additionally, fixed rates offer protection against market volatility and economic uncertainty. The Case for Waiting Some experts predict that base rates may fall in the coming years, especially if inflation eases and economic growth slows. If this happens, waiting could allow you to secure a lower mortgage rate in the future. However, this strategy carries risks—if rates rise instead, you could end up paying more. Ultimately, the decision depends on your financial situation and risk tolerance.

Many people believe that to make money in UK property, you need substantial savings for deposits and renovation costs. However, it is possible to invest in property with little to no money of your own. In my latest Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast, I explore strategies that can help you get started in UK property without using your own cash. Joint Ventures are one popular method. By partnering with investors who have capital but lack the time or expertise, you can bring your skills to the table and share profits. The key is finding the right partner and offering value. Another strategy is rent-to-rent, where you lease a property from a landlord and then rent it out for a higher rate. This method allows you to generate cash flow without needing a large upfront investment. Property sourcing is another option. You find properties below market value and sell them to investors for a fee. This requires market knowledge and negotiation skills but can be a great way to make money without buying property yourself. Lastly, creative financing techniques, like lease options, allow you to control a property now and purchase it later, often with no deposit required. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/YJ6MsVzq7DA By leveraging these strategies, you can get started in property investment even if you don't have your own cash.

As Labour warn of a “painful” budget and a “broken” economy, the wealthy are leaving the UK or making plans to relocate to lower tax countries. The Swiss bank, UBS, predicts it its latest Global Wealth Report that 500,000 millionaires will leave the UK by 2028, a 17% fall. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/P3AaRyeqZfA The FT said the UK will lose the most millionaires among the countries covered by UBS due to a combination of threatened ‘non-dom' taxation, higher taxes and Russian sanctions, which has also seen billions flow out of the country. UBS's report estimates that $83.5tn of wealth would be transferred within the next 20 to 25 years. This puts in doubt London's position as a haven for the global elite, currently a haven for the third highest number of dollar millionaires after the US and China. At the same time, low growth and high taxes and regulation is moving global investment to countries where the see more opportunity in Asia, North and South America and Africa, according to the media tycoon Sir Martin Sorrell. Taiwan has seen the highest growth of millionaires largely due to high tech growth businesses in the microchip sector.   Labour Hint Of Wealth Tax, Higher Inheritance and Capital Gains Taxes And “Painful” October Budget Concerns over potential tax hikes, as the Labour Party hints at plans to raise Inheritance Tax (IHT), Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and even introduce a wealth tax, are already causing an exodus of the rich.

Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer presented the Renters Rights Bill to Parliament on Wednesday during PM Questions. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/iqXll_itlNA The Bill appears to be a rebrand of the Conservatives Renters Reform Bill which failed to become law before Rishi Sunak's disastrous snap election. I would urge you to read to Bill or at least the ‘Guide' published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/guide-to-the-renters-rights-bill/82ffc7fb-64b0-4af5-a72e-c24701a5f12a Many landlords are retiring, considering their options or selling up after years of landlord bashing, red tape and higher taxes under Section 24. Less new landlords are entering the market in such great numbers due to higher mortgage rates, stricter lending criteria and lower yields on but-to-let properties as prices have risen much faster than rents.  The Renters' Rights Bill 2024 signals a major shift in the dynamics of the private rental market. While these changes aim to protect tenants and ensure fair practices, buy-to-let landlords will need to adapt to new regulations and potentially alter their investment strategies. Smaller landlords could be pushed out by corporates and hedge funds looking to build or buy thousands of properties for rental.

Currently, IHT is levied at 40% on estates worth over £325,000, but this could change, leading to more families being caught in the tax net. Capital Gains Tax is also on Labour's radar, with proposals to align CGT rates more closely with income tax rates. This could see higher earners paying significantly more on profits from property sales, stocks, and other investments. Additionally, Labour's discussions around a potential wealth tax are causing further anxiety. Such a tax would target the richest individuals, potentially impacting those with significant property holdings, investments, and savings.

Prime Minister Kier Starmer says “thing will get worse”, warning of a “painful” October Budget. The UK property market is showing signs of resilience with a 14% increase in new property listings compared to last year. However, the optimism is being tempered by concerns over potential tax hikes as the Labour Party hints at plans to raise Inheritance Tax (IHT), Capital Gains Tax (CGT), and even introduce a wealth tax. The surge in property listings can be attributed to homeowners looking to capitalize on the current market conditions before any potential tax changes come into effect. With interest rates remaining relatively low and demand for housing still strong, many are taking the opportunity to sell. However, the prospect of higher taxes under a potential Labour government is causing unease among property owners and investors alike. Inheritance Tax is a particular area of concern, as Labour has suggested that the current threshold could be lowered, increasing the tax burden on estates.

In the UK, inheritance tax can take a significant portion of your estate, leaving less for your loved ones. However, with careful planning through wills and trusts, you can mitigate this burden. For more expert advice on managing your finances, subscribe to Charles Kelly Money Tips Podcast on YouTube or email charles@charleskelly.net to meet a specialist adviser. Watch full YouTube interview: https://youtu.be/-SfqPiXPTbg Creating a properly drafted will ensures your assets are distributed according to your wishes, potentially avoiding intestacy rules that might increase your tax liability. Including trusts in your estate planning is a powerful tool to protect your wealth. Trusts can help reduce inheritance tax by transferring assets out of your estate, placing them in the hands of trusted individuals for your beneficiaries. Key strategies include the Nil-Rate Band Discretionary Trust, which allows you to pass on up to £325,000 tax-free, and gifting assets during your lifetime, which can also reduce the value of your estate if you survive for seven years after the gift. It's essential to review and update your will regularly to reflect changes in your circumstances and tax laws. Proper estate planning with wills and trusts not only safeguards your legacy but also ensures your loved ones benefit from the maximum inheritance with minimal tax impact.

How to Protect Your Pension Fund from a Stock Market Crash Worried about the impact of a stock market crash on your pension fund? You're not alone. Market volatility can significantly affect your retirement savings, but there are strategies you can implement to safeguard your investments. Watch video https://youtu.be/e2iiYBYCUOw?si=enFe6LD0M8jt3hQG Diversify Your Portfolio: One of the best ways to protect your pension fund is through diversification. By spreading your investments across different asset classes—such as bonds, real estate, and cash—you reduce the risk of a market downturn affecting your entire portfolio. Diversification ensures that even if one asset class takes a hit, others may remain stable or even gain value. Regularly Rebalance Your Portfolio: Market conditions change over time, so it's crucial to regularly review and rebalance your portfolio. This involves adjusting your asset allocation to maintain your desired level of risk. Rebalancing helps you lock in gains from outperforming assets and reinvest them into underperforming ones, maintaining a balanced risk exposure. Consider Safe Haven Assets: Investing in safe haven assets like gold, government bonds, or cash equivalents can provide stability during market crashes. These assets tend to hold their value or even appreciate when stock markets decline, offering protection for your pension fund. Stay Informed and Seek Professional Advice: Keeping up with market trends and seeking advice from a financial advisor can help you make informed decisions. A professional can guide you on how to adjust your pension investments to minimize risks during turbulent times. Protect your retirement savings by taking proactive steps today!

There are a raft of business taxes, landlord tax hikes under Section 24, as well as taxes on your savings, Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance tax.  But why do we pay so much tax? The answer lies in funding public services like the NHS, education, and infrastructure. High taxes are designed to support the welfare state and maintain social programs.

After months of dithering, the Bank of England has finally cut the base rate to 5 per cent, the first time the central bank has voted to cut the base rate since 2020. On seven consecutive occasions the central bank voted to hold rates at 5.25 per cent between August 2023 and June 2024, despite falling inflation. There had been 14 consecutive base rate hikes since December 2021. The bank's successive interest rate rises between December 2021 and August 2023 were bad news for borrowers but good news for savers. The average two-year fixed mortgage rate is now 5.78 per cent, according to Moneyfacts, and the average five-year fix is 5.39 per cent. Right now, the lowest five-year fix is 3.99 per cent and the lowest two-year fix is 4.42 per cent, but lenders have already started cutting rates, but beware for excessive arrangement fees.  Savers Rates Say goodbye to great savers deals, including Santander's 5.2 per cent special edition easy-access rate and NS&I's one-year bond paying 6.2 per cent, which launched in September 2023. One of the best one-year fixed-rate account on the market now pays 5.4 per cent, down from a high of 6.2 per cent in October 2023. Savers should note that 1,638 savings accounts still beat inflation which is now at the Bank of England's target of 2 per cent, according to the Mail Online. This means the value of your money is growing in real terms against inflation. NS&I revealed it will offer a new one-year Guaranteed Growth Bond paying 5.15 per cent or a Guaranteed Income Bond at 5.03 per cent. The offer is exclusive to existing 6.2 per cent bond holders and will be available when their current one matures, starting from the end of next month. A saver putting £10,000 in Union Bank of India's one-year fix will earn a guaranteed £554 interest over one year. It comes with full protection under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme up to £85,000 per person. Are Buy-to-Let property deals still worth it?

The Labour Party's Renters' Rights Bill 2024 is poised to bring significant changes to the UK's rental market, impacting both tenants and buy-to-let landlords. Understanding these changes is crucial for landlords to navigate the evolving landscape effectively. Watch video version - https://youtu.be/Wx1HXgVW1bM Key Changes Proposed in the Renters' Rights Bill 2024 Enhanced Security for Tenants The bill aims to provide tenants with greater security by abolishing Section 21 “no-fault” evictions. This means landlords will no longer be able to evict tenants without a valid reason, making it more challenging to regain possession of their properties. Rent Controls One of the most contentious aspects of the bill is the introduction of rent controls. The government plans to cap rent increases, tying them to inflation or another measure. This change is intended to prevent excessive rent hikes but may limit the profitability for landlords. Mandatory Property Standards The bill also proposes stricter property standards, requiring landlords to ensure their properties meet higher quality benchmarks. This includes ensuring proper insulation, energy efficiency, and overall habitability. Non-compliance could result in hefty fines or penalties. Longer Tenancy Agreements Labour advocates for the standardization of longer tenancy agreements, such as three-year contracts, to provide tenants with more stability. While this benefits tenants, landlords may find it challenging to adapt to longer commitments. Impact on Buy-to-Let Landlords Financial Implications The introduction of rent controls could impact landlords' rental income, especially in high-demand areas where they previously enjoyed significant annual increases. Landlords must re-evaluate their financial projections and strategies to maintain profitability. Increased Regulatory Compliance With stricter property standards, landlords will need to invest in property upgrades to meet the new requirements. This could involve substantial upfront costs but may also enhance property value and appeal in the long term. 3.Changes in Investment Strategies The bill may lead to a shift in investment strategies among buy-to-let landlords. Some might seek to diversify their portfolios or explore other property markets with less stringent regulations. Others might exit the rental market altogether if the perceived risks outweigh the benefits. Impact on Property Supply As landlords adjust to these changes, there could be a temporary reduction in the supply of rental properties. Some landlords might sell their properties, leading to a more competitive market for remaining rental units. In conclusion, the Labour Party's Renters' Rights Bill 2024 is set to bring comprehensive reforms to the rental market. While these changes aim to protect tenants and ensure fair practices, buy-to-let landlords will need to adapt to new regulations and potentially alter their investment strategies. Staying informed and proactive will be key for landlords to navigate this evolving landscape successfully.

How Will the New Labour Government Transform the UK Housing Market? What will this mean for Landlords and Tenants? The election of a new Labour government, and Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer, brings a wave of anticipation and uncertainty, particularly regarding the UK housing market and the buy-to-let property sector. As Labour's policies start to unfold, both landlords and tenants are keen to understand the potential impacts. Labour's Housing Policies Labour has long championed affordable housing and tenant rights. Their manifesto includes ambitious plans to build 1.5 million new homes over the current parliament, introduce rent controls, and increase ‘protections' for tenants. This could significantly shift the landscape for both homeowners and the buy-to-let market. The Renters Reform Bill will be resurrected and will almost certainly include an end to Section 21 ‘no fault' evictions and more ‘secure' tenancies. Impact on the Housing Market Increased Housing Supply: Labour's pledge to build more homes aims to address the chronic housing shortage. This could stabilize or even reduce house prices, making it easier for first-time buyers to enter the market.    Affordability: By increasing housing supply, Labour hopes to make homes more affordable. This is particularly beneficial for young people and families currently priced out of the market. Effects on the Buy-to-Let Market Rent Controls: One of the most talked-about Labour policies is the introduction of rent controls. While this aims to protect tenants from excessive rent hikes, landlords might see a cap on their rental income, potentially reducing the profitability of buy-to-let investments.    Tenant Protections: Enhanced tenant protections could include longer tenancies and restrictions on eviction procedures. This provides tenants with greater security but might limit landlords' flexibility in managing their properties and will be a challenge to small landlords. Tax Changes: Labour has suggested revisiting tax reliefs available to landlords. Possible reductions in tax incentives could discourage new buy-to-let investments and prompt some landlords to sell their properties. What This Means for Landlords Landlords might face increased regulation and potentially lower returns on their investments. It is crucial for landlords to stay informed about new policies and consider strategies to adapt, such as focusing on property quality and location to attract long-term tenants. What This Means for Tenants Tenants are likely to benefit from increased protections and potentially lower rents. Labour's policies aim to create a fairer rental market, offering tenants more stability and affordability. Immigration The new Prime Minister has promised to deal with the “small boats” illegal immigration, as well the “processing” the huge backlog of asylum cases. He refused to say what he means by “processing” applications, but it will probably involve some kind of an amnesty or “legacy” scheme as implemented by the Blair government.  In practice, hundreds of thousands of migrants will be granted leave to remain whether or not the arrived in the UK legally. This means asylum seekers will be able to work and could see an end to temporary housing and hotel accommodation. Conclusion Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer's Labour government's policies are set to bring significant changes to the UK housing market and the buy-to-let sector. While tenants stand to gain from greater protections and affordability, landlords may need to navigate tighter regulations and potentially lower profits. Staying informed and adaptable will be key for all parties involved. Understanding these potential changes is crucial for navigating the evolving landscape of the UK housing market.
