VAT on residential property

The rules governing VAT on property were changed during the last budget. From 1st July 2008, the following rules apply:

If you are buying a new house from a builder/developer, you will be charged VAT at 13.5%

If you are buying or selling an ‘old’ or existing property, you will not have to pay VAT

If you are a landlord, you cannot charge VAT on rent from residential property

If you buy a site for a house from a landowner, you will not have to pay VAT unless you have an agreement with both the landowner and a builder to develop the site
