    If you have some energy and an interest in property, open another Ltd Co (SPV) for investing into BTLs. Your IT Ltd Co can give an open-ended loan to your Property SPV and that can be invested in BTLs.

    It's not difficult but can be time consuming. There is also a risk of the property market facing some quite significant headwinds what with rising interest rates and cost of living impacting tenant affordability.

    Personally I'm not buying property at this time unless I see a 'deal', and I also have cash devaluing in the bank right now

    Spend more time doing the things that are important to you, being with the people that are important to you, having a positive impact.

    You don't want to be the richest fool in the graveyard.

    I think they said they live off the salary plus what's left of the dividend threshold after putting 20k into the ISA, so that's ~30k. I'm not clear if the OP is saying they have too much personal cash, business cash, or both though it's quite easy to see that 30k is more than you need to live off if you don't have a mortgage or expensive tastes.

    - Set a small monthly salary to live one
    - Invest company funds into a SIPP

    It leaves me with a personal cash surplus way above an emergency fund and with inflation so high it seems a bit daft. I've thought about opening a GIA or even maybe an SPV for BTLs but so far have opted to just leave a chunk in Chase earning minimal interest.

    In fairness this is more of a personal tax planning question than an accounting one.

    Bring forward unused SIPP contribution allowance going back up to three years. ISA allowances are lost if unused each year. Pension contribution allowance remains usable for three years.

    Going back awhile, I paid £80k into my SIPP for two consecutive years, using previously unused allowance.
