    Looking for advice, im contemplating selling land that I inherited from my father to the forrestry. What would my position be regarding Capital gains tax in my situation. The land was inherited by me in 2000 at no cost but I don't have a valuation of it then.
    If it was valued at 20000 upon inheritance and I'm getting 50000 now I'd be liable for 30000 Cgt or would it be on the the full 50000.

    You'd only be liable for the CGT on the 30000
