Buy to Let property

Postby steven13 » Thu Jul 08, 2021 6:37 pm

My wife and I own a Buy To Let property. We are in the process of an amicable divorce and part of the financial settlement agreed with the Court is that she will take the Buy to Let property.
If it is transferred prior to the Divorce absolute do I still pay Capital Gains Tax on the gain arising from my share?
Secondly on the basis CG tax is payable where can I obtain details of my original cost, namely amount paid and date of purchase. Lost all paperwork, and although I know roughly , better get it accurate for HMRC.
