PropMatch Curated Analysis
IHT receipts hit record £6.7bn as frozen thresholds and rising property values catch 13% more estates, with further increases expected from pension pot inclusion and reduced business/agricultural reliefs from 2026-27.
Investor Relevance
Critical for exit planning and estate structuring. Rising property values increasingly trigger IHT liability, while upcoming changes to pension inclusion and business property relief will affect investment holding structures. May influence timing of disposals and succession planning strategies.
