Holdover relief

Posted by superaquarama PM | on Fri, 11/09/2009 - 11:00 986 4 comments | report

I have a client who is about to gift a derelict property to his daughter, there will be a gain of around £80k.

Daughter will sell it straight on as she & her husband are doing up a large farmhouse in France, indeed they live & work there permanently and are not UK residents.

It occurred to me that if hold-over were claimed on the first disposal, and the second disposal were not chargeable to CGT as daughter's not resident, CGT might be neatly bypassed !

Will this fly ?
