Reading that the EU have forced spain over capital gains tax to treat non-residents but uk/eu citizens equally by reducing cgt for non-residents from 35% to 18%.......is there any hope for us non-residents that used all the money from the sale to purchase a new house but still have to pay cgt on the increased value of the original property even though we have re-invested the total sale proceeds...residents can mitigate their cgt when they purchase a new house if they use all the proceeds from the sale....could this be seen as unfair to non-residents as was the original eu decision?.........has anything ever been mentioned about this......thanks for your time reading this post and i would value your answer. thanks..brian
