How much could you claim?
It depends on how you came to own the property. As a guide, this is the share of the cost that typically qualifies.
New build
Much of the heating, electrics, lifts and specialist care systems, as well as many fixtures and fittings, qualify from day one.
Refurbishment or extension
Often the richest source of relief, because much of the spend goes on systems, equipment and qualifying plant and machinery installations.
Acquisition
The fixtures you inherit can carry valuable relief, as long as it's secured at the point of sale.
Figures are illustrative. Every property is different, and the actual amount depends on its design, age, use and history.
Expertise in assisted living
Due to the complexities around the "dwelling house" definition, qualifying expenditure on assisted and supported living schemes is often under-claimed or missed altogether.
