VAT rate on sale of listed building

My client is a limited company in the building and construction field.

In March 2016 the company purchased a listed dwelling.  No VAT was incurred on purchase.

It is currently 1 residential dwelling with outbuildings (all listed)  Planning permission has been granted and it is currently being substantially reconstructed into 3 dwellings,  The whole of the buildings have been demolished, apart from the shell and any features of heritage significance.

The reconstruction is funded via a loan, being drip fed into the business as and when needed and will be paid back on sale of dwellings.

  1. Money in as loans to the company I exclude from VAT Return?
  2. Is the VAT on the sale of the dwellings zero rated?
  3. Can we claim back all VAT on materials?
  4. Should the subcontractors be charging us at zero rated vat if the sale stands at 0% vat?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  (No 2 is the most important one to be answered)
They normally do new builds and this is far less complicated!

Thanks
GA Bookkeeping.
