I know not many people here have experience with selling property .. but I have a question.
If you bought a property for £200,000
then you sell it for £275,000
Do you get to keep the £75,000, or is there tax to be paid on it?
Supposing it is not being used to finance another property purchase.

Thanks.

I already have money to pay solicitors/agency fees - but I was wondering if I would be taxed on the 75k - because it's an amount you are receiving in one lump sum.
Ta again
is it your domestic property or an investment property ?
If its your domestic property there isn't any Capital Gains, if its not then you will be liable for capital gains.
