Willie Morales+FollowWill Boomers Downsize or Get Taxed?Over coffee: The UK government is eyeing baby boomers’ property and pension stashes to fill its cash gap. There’s talk of higher taxes on pricey homes and discounts for cheaper ones to get people moving and boost the economy. But most retirees aren’t budging from their big houses, partly because there aren’t enough comfy, smaller homes. If boomers don’t downsize, they might face steeper taxes. So, if you’re sitting on a big house, now might be the time to think about your next move! #Business #MakeMoney #UKHousing2823Share
