hi, hoping someone can help here
we lived in our main home since 2000 and in 2013 we were fortunate enough to be able to purchase a second property which we them rented out.
unfortunately in December due to personal/financial circumstances we had to sell our main residence and move into the smaller more affordable property we previously rented out.
now much to our distress we have been forced to sell this property too and to add further to our situation have been advised we may be liable for capital gains tax on the property as it was rented out.
can someone advise if we would qualify for any relief? having looked online briefly I have seed principal residence relief and letting relief mentioned but don't know if we qualify for either of them. we have lived in the property for 5 months now and at the moment we can't really afford to pay for advice if we don't qualify but if we could get an indication if we do we would find the money somehow.
hoping someone can point us in the right direction....
