SDLTM24745 - Withdrawal of Relief

Seeding relief may be withdrawn where:   

  • a fund/purchaser ceases to qualify as a PAIF/CoCS. See SDLTM24750  

  • a RIF converts to a CoACS and the RIF did not meet the Genuine Diversity of Ownership’ condition or the non-close condition, other than by relying solely on a ‘grace period’. See SDLTM24780 

  • the fund/purchaser fails to meet the ‘Portfolio Test’ at any time before the end of the seeding period. See SDLTM25765  

  • the vendor makes a ‘relevant disposal’. See SDLTM24770  

  • a purchased property is a Dwelling Occupied by a Non-Qualifying Individual. See SDLTM24775 

  • the fund/purchaser is a CoACS, and that fund ceases to meet the ‘Genuine Diversity of Ownership’ condition. See SDLTM24780  

Where relief is withdrawn, a further land transaction return will be required. See SDLTM50400 .
