Tax implications when selling a property

Tackyplum
Posts: 6 Forumite
I am soon to be divorced and will have to sell the family home as a result. I will take 50% of the equity which I intend to invest in another property. My plan is to buy something that needs work and hopefully sell on a for a little profit. I intend to continue to do this until I have enough funds to purchase an ideal property. Each property will be classed as my main residence whilst I carry out the works but intend to only have each property for a few months. Can anyone tell me what the tax implications are/could be. Many thanks and sorry for the very long post.

If you are living in it while you renovate and it is your main residence there are no tax implications. Renovate away and move yourself up the ladder! Good luck0

Several BPA members have noticed that the house has been parked for more than the 2 hour limit, so they are queuing up to put a "ticket" on it.0
