Your tax advisor and accountant will be giving you advice based on the rules set by Government and HMRC’s job is as the enforcer
Look for around 20% as a baseline profit margin
If you have a sitting tenant you can use the ‘transfer of going concern rules’ and not pay the VAT but you need to register for  VAT moving forward
If you are converting from commercial to residential you can complete a VAT1614D form and give it to the vendor
When you purchase a commercial property speak to a capital allowances tax expert early on
Land remediation relief means you can claim back 150% on the costs when there is contamination like knotweed
