The other concern is if they give you access, how do they get rid of you if it goes sour. To get around this you could ask them to prepare a licence, and agree to vacate on a certain day if…[Read more]

The costs to connect it to the sewer main would depend on the distance the new connecting pipes need to go. The work needs to be done by a licensed plunber, so you would need to get a few quotes. They will also tell you a time frame. You will also…[Read more]

You then only pay GCT on any increase after that valuatio. Whatever it increased in value while it was your primary place of residence is not subject to CGT.
