Re: capital gains tax
If you know the area well and like to live there ,cant see why not. make sure you employ a good solicitor to check it out. there are horror stories being told about buying land to build.

Re: capital gains tax
Why don´t you give us the name of the firm of solicitors. You never know, someone might have used them already and can give you some feedback.

Re: capital gains tax
Dont panic but I made the big mistake of using the estate agents solicitor in a previous house purchase and went through hell. Check on all my previous posts if interested. I strongly recommend you to get your own independent solicitor asap.
