    Lettings loss - Capital gain

    Advice would be appreciated. Due to some properties being on market without tenants (no income), I have a net loss for income in 07-08. However having sold properties I have a Capital gain. Can I offset my property income loss amount against taxable amount for CGT before calculating total due to HMRC?

    Afraid not although no doubt there are legitimate things you can reduce the CGT on the property you have sold although not as many as before you sell which obviously gives my profession a lot more scope to reduce your bill
