my husband died and left me the house to live in until i die then it goes to my 3 children. he also left them a trust of £500,000, and there are 3 trustees looking after this.I would like to sell the house im living in and buy somewhere smaller. i anticipate that the house will sell for £800,000 and have seen somewhere i like for £200,000. i would like each of the children to be given a share of the £600,000 balance now rather than when i die.
i need to know the tax implications of this. What tax will need to be paid??
