Hi..I have purchased a house in the middle of 2016 and the property tax was paid for the full year by the previous owner.
Is Property Tax like Car Tax,i.e. if i tax a car for a period of time and sell the car before that period is up the new owner has only to tax the car from the new period of tax due.
In my case the house LPT was paid for whole of 2016 and i bought it July 2016,the previous owner demanded refund of 6 months LPT from me and my solicitor said i had to pay before i could complete purchase of property.
