I'm a student who does not live in England, but is intending to go to university there next year (this september.) I had inherited a house and am now selling it for a large sum of money. If I do go to university in England before next April, will I be liable to pay Capital Gains Tax?

House prices are falling - will you actually make a capital gain if you sell?

I am selling the land as developmental property rather than as a house, so it's going for about double price.
