Do you have to pay capital gains tax on a primary(only) home property? I've had a quick look on HMRC and it would seem not? Looking at selling up and going into rental, mortgage early repayment fee is next to nothing. Cheers

HIP I guess if not thrown in free by an agent, pennies really though in the grand scheme.
