Hi My partner and I found a plot we are interested in building on. We think that there is room for two semi detached dwellings. It is my understanding that the VAT refund applies when you are building a property for you or your family to live or holiday in. Strictly speaking this is what we intend on doing. We intend on building a home for us to live in and a home for friends and family to use when they visit us. Essentially my question is, are there legitimate circumstances by which we could achieve a VAT refund on both properties. Things we are open to: * splitting the title and doing two refunds? * building a single dwelling that could later be converted into 2 semis. * ... My partner and I are not yet married, if that has any impact?

Hi I am new to the forum. My partner and I have been toying with the idea of building our own home for a little while. I found myself on Friday trawling through blogs and forum posts on here. There certainly is a wealth of knowledge here!
