Great information thank you! This is a really helpful summary. I’m thinking of contributing 25% towards the cost of a house for my widowed mum and holding a 25% share as a tenant in common, with my mum owning the remaining 75%, and she will live in the house as her primary residence. Is her share exempt from IHT on her passing if the value of the home is less than £1 million?
