Hi all,
Looking for some advice please My father transferred the family home onto me in 2016. It was a very old house so we completely demolished it and built an entirely new house on the same site. New foundation, new waste water etc, not a scrap of the old house was left. We moved into the new house in mid-2018. I recently checked with revenue to see when I was due to pay LPT....per the website I understood it to 2020, because we had a new build, but I wasn't sure when in 2020. However, they advised me that i was liable for lpt from November 2018 and all subsequent years, on the basis that there was a previous property on that site and the property ID was retained by the new house, and we were living in it in nov 2018. This makes no sense to be. A new build is not the old house. Even if the property ID is carried forward to the new house, it still fits the definition of a new property. Any thought on this? Thanks in advance,
