If I sell a property currently held in my personal name and immediately reinvest the proceeds into another buy-to-let, are there any deferral options or reliefs for Capital Gains Tax, or do I have to pay it within 60 days regardless of immediate reinvestment plans?
Quick Answer
No, reinvesting proceeds from a personally-held buy-to-let into another does not defer Capital Gains Tax. CGT is typically due within 60 days of sale completion, with limited reliefs available.
