Our new Chancellor recently announced changes to Stamp Duty Land Tax. If you are buying a new home, how will the changes affect you?

Effective from 23rd September:

* SDLT was cut by doubling the level at which you begin paying, from £125,000 to £250,000.
* The above will reduce stamp duty bills for all movers by up to £2,500.
* The level at which first-time-buyers start paying stamp duty has increased from £300,000 to £425,000.
* Ceiling price for first-time-buyers accessing the relief has increased from £500,000 to £625,000.
* The above means first-time-buyers are now able to access up to £8,750 in relief.

If you are considering a move and would like a no-obligation quote for conveyancing fees, do contact Brooks & Partners on 01276 681217.

There is much speculation that Rishi Sunak is due to extend the stamp duty holiday until the end of June.

What isn't clear is whether the extension is three months for all current and new buyers of properties up to £500,000 - or a 'tapered' extension ONLY for current buyers. The official announcement will be made at the budget next Wednesday, so watch this space for an update on the announcement.
