What is a SIPP?

A SIPP puts you in charge of where your pension is invested.  It provides you with far greater flexibility and investment choice than a traditional pension whilst still earning the same tax relief as a normal fund.

SIPPs allow you to invest in a far wider range of assets than a standard pension allowing a more diverse portfolio. Investment areas include:

• Overseas property including hotel room style investments
• Bank deposits
• Bonds
• Shares
• Commercial property
• Unit & investment trusts
• Hedge funds
• Open ended investment companies
• Exchange traded funds
• Foreign currency
• Warrants

Tax Relief

Contributions into a SIPP also attract tax relief up to 50% based upon an individual’s circumstances so this can increase the amount of funds available to invest in a prime resort property.

It is also possible to borrow additional funds against the value of the SIPP. Up to 50% of the net value of a SIPP can be borrowed to increase the overall fund for property investment. So, as an example, a fund that has a net value of £150,000 can be increased by 50%, or £75,000 to make a total fund of £225,000 available to invest in property.

The good news doesn’t end there as the property purchased through a SIPP should also benefit from future capital growth and rental income.

Alongside the flexibility and investment choice a SIPPs can provide compared to standard pensions there has been huge press coverage highlighting the current downward trend of the performance of the standard pension
