UK Property Tax Show by Simon Misiewicz
UK property tax is changing fast and most landlords, investors, and even advisers are getting it wrong.
This podcast breaks down the real rules behind UK property taxation, cutting through outdated advice, social media myths, and risky strategies that could cost you thousands in tax, penalties, or HMRC enquiries.
Hosted by Simon Misiewicz, a UK property tax specialist and founder of Optimise Accountants, each episode delivers clear, practical insights you can actually use, whether you own one buy-to-let or a complex property portfolio.
What you’ll learn
- How to legally reduce tax on rental income and property profits
- The truth about limited companies, Section 24, and incorporation risks
- Capital Gains Tax strategies when selling property
- Stamp Duty (SDLT) traps and how to avoid overpaying

Why this podcast is different
Most “property tax advice” online is either:
- Outdated
- Over-simplified
- Or dangerously aggressive
This podcast focuses on what actually works under current UK tax law, based on real client experience and HMRC practice — not theory.
