Moving Back Into a Rental to Reduce CGT?

In short: Private Residence Relief (PRR) exempts the gain on a home for the periods you genuinely lived in it as your main residence, plus the final nine months of ownership. If you let the property for some years, the gain for those years is usually taxable. Since April 2020, lettings relief only applies where you shared the home with the tenant. Moving back for a short time to "top up" relief is unlikely to work unless it's genuinely your home, and HMRC looks at the evidence. Take specialist tax advice before selling.
