Under current inheritance tax law (as of October 2017), it may be possible to reduce the amount of taxes through good land utilization.In particular, those who own land in areas with high land prices, such as urban areas, commercial areas, and areas with schools, may be able to achieve greater benefits.
Specific Benefits
- Under tax law, the valuation of land may be reduced by constructing buildings on idle or vaLand on which rental housing exists may be assessed as land with attached rental buildings, resulting in a lower valuation.
- Special exceptions for small-scale residential land may result in a large reduction in the assessed value of land.
These advantages have led many wealthy people and landowners to take measures against inheritance tax through land utilization.
Normally, such consultations tend to be complicated, with land utilization being handled by a real estate company and taxes being handled by a licensed tax accountant. However, minitech has a Group company, “Sumai no Depato,” that buys and sells land and buildings, making it possible to provide consultations on how to utilize idle land owned by landlords in addition to sales and purchases.
In addition, minitech has contracted with a tax accountant office that holds tax seminars and study sessions for landlords about tax measures on an irregular basis.
