Can I give my house to my children and continue to live in it and avoid inheritance tax?

If a person pays full market rent to their children during their lifetime after the transfer, they can continue to live in the house and escape Inheritance Tax liability. However, it may not be a beneficial arrangement since the children of the individual will be liable to pay income tax on the rent they receive and capital gains tax when they subsequently sell the house.
Inheritance Tax on Value of Home can be saved by applying Additional Threshold if the home is being transferred to children or grandchildren in event of death of an individual. There is an additional threshold of 100,000 for the year 2017/18 which can be used to the extent of the lower of-
1.	Value of home
2.	Additional threshold- 100,000 for the year 2017/18
Hence, the total available NIL- Rate threshold will be effectively Basic Threshold (325,000) + Additional Threshold (lower of 1. Or 2.) which will be used to reduce the value of total taxable estate.

Her Own Wings

27 parts Complete Mature

Liz grew up in a house that looked picture perfect. A Mother, Father and younger sister. Looks are deceiving. Sir, her father, is an alcoholic and drug abuser. When he's sober, he's the greatest guy to be around. When drunk, he's someone to avoid. Liz learned at a young age it was better to be seen and not heard. When Sir got drunk, Liz stayed in her room and struggled to be quiet so she didn't draw attention to herself. She began using her imagination at a young age to self soothe. Liz had a full family, who were loving and supporting in her imaginary world. As she got older, her imaginary world changed. Gone were the fantastical beasts from her childhood, sand replaced with her imaginary perfect family, perfect boyfriend, perfect everything. When things got tough, Liz escaped reality. Now, as an adult, wife and mother, when tragedy strikes she finally needs to learn to live fully in the real world. Can she give up her perfect world?
