Property Through Pension

BCWM can provide financial advisors and their clients with self-directed pension options: ARF, PRSA, SSAP or BOB, that will allow them to invest directly in real estate and other investments on the basis of best advice.

  • ARF, an Approved Retirement Fund for post-retirement
  • SSAP, a Small Self-Administered Pension Scheme
  • BOB, a Buy Out Bond, suitable for consolidating different pension scheme types.
  • PRSA, Personal Retirement Savings Account.

What are the advantages of holding Real Estate in your pension?

  • Tax relief on pension contributions to a pension scheme
  • No income tax on rental payments received to the pension scheme
  • No capital gains tax on the disposal of a property in a pension scheme
  • Borrowing may be available

The difference in potential investment return received over 10 years to the pension compared to a private investor excluding the cost of property management expenses and pension providers fees is €176,248.
