Just want to know if I have to pay capital gains tax on my original home. Me and partner separated 7 years ago, and since then her and my kids have been living there with me paying 50% of the mortgage.
Timeline of events
- House purchased 2005 (Joint Tennants)
- Separated 2011
- Lived with Parents from separation to 2017 when I got my own house.
- 2 Children and Ex Partner remained in house as she had a low income and wanted children to have a safe house to grow up in.
- Looking to sell later this year.
Will I have to pay CGT considering my children have been living there?
