Hi Plumboy; The Government owns some land and some properties. The British people can buy and sell their own land and houses freely. But there are some taxes payable. I own my own house which I live in, when I sell that house I can take all the money it sells for and all the profit thats been made from purchase price to sale price, no tax payable. If I also own another house but dont live in it (rent it out to someone else) I would have to pay 40% tax on the profit I made when I sold it. The BUYER of houses here has to pay a PURCHASE TAX based on the value of the house. Under $200K is 0% tax, over that would be 3% tax, and very expensive houses would be 4% tax payable to the Government. If I owned a 100 acre farm and sold it, I would be liable for 40% tax on the profit between the purchase price & the sale price. BUT I would have 2 years without having to pay that tax which would give me time to buy another farm (called "roll-over"). If I didnt buy another farm after the 2 years I would then be liable to pay that 40% tax). This is a very simplified explaination. Cheers David
