Ron,

Our tapu does not have a valuation on it either. I think it's because we are on a complex - or maybe we are illegal ;-)

Thanks again, we thought we had done our homework, but after reading so many horror stories on this and other forums (after we had bought) we find that loads of people far more intelligent and astute than us have fallen victim to many worse scams than the tapu value one.

We were so overjoyed to actually get a tapu that we didn't even think about this until our neighbour pointed out that the value was lira not GBP. It doesn't state a currency on the tapu and everything else had been done in GBP, so we didn't even realise there was a problem.

I hope you will not mind me asking a few more questions on this. I'm sure that there are others in the same boat who would also appreciate your advice.

I understand that there is some allowance made against CGT, but can you also claim back anything for "improvements" such as installing air cons and any furniture you include in the sale price?

As the property is in both names, does each person on the tapu get a tax free portion or is it a "one off" against the total gain?

Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Not sure where that came from initially, thanks to whoever did it  :)

Ours is a bit different to that one. I'll see if I can copy it in pdf and put the details up (exluding the private bits)
