Stamp Duty Land Tax Cuts

The chancellor announces a cut to the Stamp Duty Land tax in England and Northern Ireland.

The cut raises the threshold of how much a property has to cost before stamp duty is paid to £250,000.

First time buyers currently pay no stamp duty on the first £300,000, that will be raised to £425,000.

The Chancellor announced on Friday 23rd September 2022, "And we’re going to increase the value of the property on which first-time buyers can claim relief, from £500,000 to £625,000. The steps we’ve taken today mean 200,000 more people will be taken out of paying stamp duty altogether. This is a permanent cut to stamp duty, effective from today."

"excellent in executing the conveyancing for me in the buying and selling of houses. Always keeping me informed of progress and effective in dealing with snags, I cannot recommend her highly enough."
