The Main Residence Nil Rate Band could mean you are eligible for tax relief on your estate.
Introduction
In the July 2015 Budget, the government introduced new rules which introduced an additional Main Residence Nil Rate Band (RNRB) for an estate if the deceased’s interest in a residential property, which has been their residence at some point and is included in their estate, is left to one or more direct descendants on death.
The value of the RNRB for an estate will be the lower of the net value of the interest in the residential property (after deducting any liabilities such as mortgage) or the maximum amount of the band.
The maximum amount is to £175,000 in 2024/25, and is now frozen until April 2028.
