About Kinacre
Kinacre helps Irish farm families understand the inheritance tax on a farm, and what’s on, near and under their land, before they sit down with an adviser.
Who’s behind it
Kinacre is built by Brian, from Kilkenny, who recently completed the Green Cert.
It’s independent. It isn’t connected to Revenue, Teagasc or any government body, and nobody pays to be mentioned in it.
Where the information comes from
- The calculator and the guides follow Revenue’s guidance and Citizens Information. Every guide links to the official pages it relies on.
- The land check draws on public information published by Irish state bodies.
- Everything is reviewed after every Budget and Finance Act, and every guide shows the date it was last checked.
An estimate, not advice
Kinacre gives an estimate of the inheritance tax on a farm, taking account of the main reliefs and exemptions available to farm families, and points to other reliefs worth asking about.
Like any calculator, it can’t capture every detail of a family’s situation, and reliefs carry conditions that only a professional can confirm. Use Kinacre to understand your position and prepare your questions, then talk to a farm adviser, accountant or solicitor before you act.
Found a mistake?
Email cat@kinacre.ie with the page and what looks wrong. You’ll get a reply within 3 working days, and a confirmed mistake is fixed and the page’s checked date updated.
Your privacy
What you type into the calculator stays on your own device, and Kinacre never receives it. The land check sends the outline you mark out to public map services so they can run their checks, but Kinacre doesn’t receive or store it. The privacy notice has the details.
