Less Tax 4 Landlords Co-Founder Tony Gimple Retires as a Director

Less Tax 4 Landlords

Less Tax 4 Landlords today announces that Tony Gimple, the firm's co-founder and the initial driving force behind getting the organisation off the ground, has decided to retire as a Director of the business effective January 1st, 2020.

Tony retains an interest in the business and alongside his work supporting the Private Rental Sector (PRS) as a whole, will continue to promote Less Tax 4 Landlords, the Less is More Property Business Group and the newly established One Consultancy Group.

Tony has served in his current role since the incorporation of the business in December 2015 and during his tenure as Founding Director, Tony played a critical role in establishing the vision for the business and raising the profile of the Less Tax 4 Landlords brand and service offering. In the process, he served as a champion for building new partnerships within the PRS and contributed significantly to establishing the business as a market leader in landlord tax & business consultancy for portfolio landlords.

“It's been four years since we began our journey together as Less Tax 4 Landlords” said Tony Gimple, co-founder, “and since then we've seen more changes in the way the PRS is perceived, taxed and regulated than ever before.  The Sector now accounts for some 4.5m households and is the second biggest tenure of choice after home ownership.  Having turned 60 last summer, it was about time that I took my own advice, hence my decision to retire from the day-to-day to concentrate my efforts on keeping the business at the heart of things as recognised industry experts.”

“When working with clients we always stress the importance of having that end goal and vision in mind, not just for themselves but also for their business, supported by effective succession planning;” said Chris Bailey, co-founder and Group Director.  “It's a great testament to the success we have had as a business that the group are in a position for Tony to retire as a director and that he can in turn achieve his goal of passing his remaining operational responsibilities to the new generation. On behalf of both myself and fellow co-founder and Group Director Malcolm Rose, those that have been with us since day one and those that have joined us along the way, including members of the new operational management team, we'd like to say a heartfelt thank you to Tony for his efforts in driving the business forwards since the early days and in advance for the support he will no doubt continue to give.”

Prior to co-founding Less Tax 4 Landlords, Tony founded Planned Succession helping business owners and landlords as well as private clients to pass on their hard-earned wealth to those who they care about most, whilst ensuring full control over their affairs today.

Before Planned Succession, Tony enjoyed a wide-variety of leadership roles, having pioneered embedding mortgage brokers into estate agents with Legal & General, helping to set up and run the UK's first mainstream fee based financial planning business for American Express, and co-founding the Chancery Law Group, one of the UK's first deregulated law firms.

Less Tax 4 Landlords is a specialist multi-disciplinary consultancy for portfolio landlords, and the leading brand of the Less Is More Property Business Group. Less Tax 4 Landlords and the Less is More Property Business Group work solely with property investors and portfolio landlords to help them maximise the commercial benefits of building, running, and growing a recognised professional property business. Founded in 2015, the firm is headquartered in London and maintains offices throughout the UK.
