Nationwide House Prices

[ChimpMaster]

Was it really worth it for the eyewatering CGT you must have been stung for?

(unless of course you sold them at a loss or break even)

He only had one, or maybe 2, if I remember correctly. Perhaps it was in a backwater town up North where prices hadn't risen in the past 10 years.

Or maybe he's evaded CGT somehow

I had 2 in London, no mortgage, both bought for a relative pittance in the 90s/ early 00s.
Paid/paying the eye-watering CGT, yes
But still left with a nice lump sum which is in an index fund now.
