Buy-to-let investors not unhappy with the proposed Capital Gains Tax

A lot of second homeowners and buy-to-let landlordsare breathing a sigh of relief after the much-feared increase in (CGT) Capital Gains Tax turned out a lot more reasonable than initially thought.


The Capital Gains Tax has increased to 28%  from from 18% for higher earners. It had been feared that the rate would increase to 40% or even 50%.
