Rules that apply in Wales
Biodiversity
Wales doesn't use England's 10% net gain metric. Planning Policy Wales expects development to deliver a net benefit for biodiversity.
Flood risk
Natural Resources Wales flood maps and Technical Advice Note 15 guide where new homes can go. Phosphate limits in some river catchments have also affected new housing.
Tax on the sale
In Wales the buyer pays Land Transaction Tax rather than Stamp Duty. As the seller you may owe capital gains tax. Take advice from an accountant.
