The latest Budget has introduced significant changes to Inheritance Tax that could dramatically affect farmers and business owners. Our team has just released a comprehensive video breaking down these critical changes.

The £1 Million Relief Cap: What Does It Mean?
From April 2026, the government is introducing a £1 million cap on APR and BPR. This means:

  • 100% relief is available on the first £1 million of qualifying property
  • Values over £1 million will attract only 50% relief
  • The allowance combines APR and BPR claims

Why You Can't Afford to Ignore These Changes
These reforms could have profound implications:

  • Potential tax bills for farms and businesses valued over £1 million
  • Increasing complexity in estate planning
  • New challenges for family-owned enterprises
