Hi
I have filled in my own self assessment for a number of years now which has been relatively simple but this year I think I need to account for the disposal of a jointly inherited property.
My siblings and I have NOT used this property as a main residence since the inheritance.
Qu 1. Do I do this by ticking the box asking about chargeable gains in the first page on tailoring return?
Qu 2. I don't believe we are liable for capital gains tax for reasons below - should I still fill this in?
I don't think my siblings and I are liable to capital gains tax because
i. we inherited on my mother's death in 2007 but her Will included a condition that our father remained in property as a 'liferent'. My father died in 2011.
ii. Our first home report valuation of the property only occurred in early 2012 - the selling price in 2015 was less than the valuation in 2012.
Qu 3/4. Would a capital gains charge be based on change in value between 2007 and 2015 or between 2011/2012 and 2015. If it's the former, then how would I get a market value relevant to 2007?
Many thanks to anyone who takes the time to read/reply.
