Published: April 17, 2023, 11 p.m.

In this episode, Shaz explains the VAT rates and implications when doing a commercial conversion, and how you can and should remain compliant at all times.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • When doing a commercial conversion, the VAT rate is 5% whether increasing the number of units, decreasing them, or converting a property that has been empty for more than two years.
  • If you sell a property, you can claim back the VAT, but if you hold onto it, you cannot do this due to the fact that you will be selling a service

BEST MOMENTS
