Hi there, can anyone advise if I build my own house and go the route of Direct Labour, can I claim the VAT back?

To reclaim VAT the property must be put to a taxable/VATable use such renting the property on a long term lease. So, if you are simply building to live, you cannot reclaim the VAT incurred, sorry.
