At the minute, the holiday is due to end in March, so this extension adds another two months for potential buyers.

Yes, and at the same time, corporation tax could be increasing, potentially by as much as 6% to 25%... all those investing through companies are going to be hit by this if it comes about. I haven't seen anything on capital gains tax rises yet - really hoping they don't go too far on this!
