We made a claim a few years back with the help of HJR (now Zeal) and were really happy with every aspect of that. Now selling our business, we contacted Zeal just for some advice and got so much more.... See more

Capital Allowances - Excellent experience and result. Thanks to Zeal Tax Advisors.

I am more than satisfied with the results that Zeal have achieved for me. From a position where I didn't even know about this type of tax allowance, I ended up receiving a tax rebate for previous Tax years and a credit for future tax returns; for me this was a fantastic result. From the first call where they made an initial assessment through to the final analysis they have been technically excellent, friendly, helpful and have provided regular updates on progress. Apart from providing the required information they did all the work, communication with HMRC, obtaining the tax rebate and setting up the future tax credits. They also kept in close communication with my accountant.

Beware not all it seemed

Although a large amount of money was identified as tax deductible it will take many, many years to recoup this year by year. It is not a lump sum from the tax office.
In fact it will take about 10 years to cover the amount I now owe Zeal.
I my view this was not explained clearly.
As an over 70 years old I am not going to be able to take advantage of the full amount identified by Zeal.
If you are either an older owner or not likely to keep the property for a long time be careful of the scheme. However, luckily I believe it is now too late.

Hi Brenda,

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your claim with Zeal.

Following the completion of your claim, Zeal identified over £40k in previously missed capital allowances in your holiday let. Our team were able to utilise the full allowances available and create losses for your business. As these losses will be carried forward to 2025 and further, this means you will pay NO tax on any profits until you have fully depleted these losses generated. From 2025/26, any unused losses can also be set off against any UK property income.

A capital allowances tax relief claim is a tax saving exercise, not a cash generating scheme. Whilst many of our clients do receive a cash rebate from HMRC as a result of making the claim, it is not the primary purpose of the claim. This tax relief claim will save you thousands of pounds in tax, however, your future profitability will depend on how quickly you are able to utilise the pool of losses available to you.

Based on the information provided, we had anticipated a higher cash repayment from HMRC. However, this repayment appears to have been reduced as it was offset against tax owed to HMRC. It was therefore lower than initially expected. If your business continues to be profitable, you will receive all the tax benefit well within 10 years and our fee will be minor in comparison to the tax saved.

I hope this helps clarify your concerns about the success of your claim and makes you feel more at ease.

If you have any additional queries or concerns, please contact us via hello@gozeal.co.uk.

Kind regards,
Zeal Tax

Superb

Really good company - can't fault at all. Dealt with Matthew Heavyside regarding a Capital Allowance claim. He walked me through the process really well, and answered a tonne of difficult questions. Professional, concise and helpful at all stages. Plus delivered a great outcome for our company. Wouldn't hesitate to deal with again

Capital Allowance Experts

Yes all in the title. They know their stuff and so easy to save alot of money. I don’t usually look forward to tax returns but Tom and team have saved me a significant amount in tax and I could not be happier. Also did not cost me a penny for their services as this was covered by the tax refund. Thank you Tom and Team.

Thomas Pullen was extremely helpful and explained all aspects of the process - before and during - so there was full clarity. It was straightforward and took very little of our time. I would definitely recommend working with Zeal for a capital allowances claim.
