Any tax experts out there??

My sons course finishes in June and he was threatening to come home !! Shocked Laughing
So, We have just bought him a flat. It's a repo at a silly price.
My question relates to capital gains tax.
The flat is in joint names, myself and my wife.. Being a student my son could not get a mortgage.
Some made up figures here for easy calculations...... If the flat cost 50k and we sell for 80k, then that's 30k that would be liable for CGT. BUT, if we can show that we have spent 10k on repairs would that be deducted from tax liability?
Also, as I put it in joint names can we claim 2x CGT allowance? Currently 10600 I believe..
Any advice appreciated thank you.. Previously..

Cheers.. I did read the HMRC website, but could find nothing on CGT for joint ownership. Previously..
