Why a commercial property pension investment?

Commercial property that is held in a pension can grow in value, without incurring capital gains tax when it is sold.

Rental income from the property will be free of income tax. If you are the occupier of the property, the rental income can be deemed as a business expense, reducing commercial taxes.

Commercial property held in a pension is also not subject to inheritance tax.

Finally, commercial property that is held in a pension is not accessible to creditors, should the business fail.
