RE: Reduced VAT (5%) Renovation: 2-year rule
Hi, Thanks for your response. I have double checked 8.3.2 and have contacted council and utility provider. Unfortunately both of them are unable to provide me any record due to the fact that I was not the bill owner. Can you provide some examples of acceptable source of evidence? What information need to be shown on the evidence? Take utility bill as an example, is it to show the energy usage is minimal? Thanks. -
Reduced VAT (5%) Renovation: 2-year rule
The property has been emptied for 2 years from previous owner as he passed away. After my purchase, as a new owner recently (about a month) and have not moved in yet do I still get the reduced VAT? If yes, in this case what evidence I can use to prove that given I have no permission to obtain any previous documents/records as those belongs to previous owner? I contacted my council but they do not have a Empty Property Officer. Please let me know. Thank you.
