Building a home office

[buddingarchitect]

Hi,

New to this forum. I wish to convert my loft in my home to be used solely as an office.

Can someone tell me if the expense of converting the loft and kitting out with PCs, etc... is something I can pay for using my company account?

Its about £30K to convert the loft and then of course there's the cost of office furniture, computers, servers, etc...

Thanks.

I believe you can but there are issues around when you sell your house and you may have to pay tax on the office part which could be a 5th of the total, best to have is used as a room as well. Ask your accountant for some advice on this.

You would also be ellibiable for business rates if the room is soley used for business.

Best to do the ironing in there as well to be safe

Best bet is to get hold of an invoice for a mini computer or similar for the same price as your loft conversion, write the kit off over 3 years and then scrap it. No one will be none the wiser.

Wife got her last 2 kitchens that way.
