My client owns the house he lived in until March 2003, when he took up work overseas and rented the property out. He has now decided to sell the house, but has not returned and will not be returning to the UK in the foreseeable future and hence will not re-occupy the property. The property is still let. On disposal, will the gain be covered by the main residence exemption?
