Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is something most property buyers, and some tenants, will encounter, but it's often misunderstood. While many focus on how much tax they need to pay, SDLT also involves important legal and administrative requirements that buyers need to be aware of.

In her latest article, Helen Marsh, Partner in our Commercial Property team, explains what buyers and tenants need to know about SDLT, including who is responsible for the information submitted to HMRC, why accuracy matters, the consequences of late returns, and when specialist advice may be needed.

🎾 From client meetings to court meetings...

Introducing the Slater Heelis Padel Group, bringing colleagues together through friendly competition, wellbeing and team connection.

The group recently enjoyed a session at Trafford City Padel Club, with a mix of first timers and seasoned players taking to the court.

As well as keeping active, this initiative reflects our commitment to creating opportunities for colleagues to spend time together outside the office, build relationships across teams and strengthen the connections that support our collaborative culture.

With momentum already building, we're looking forward to welcoming even more colleagues to future sessions.

Commercial property searches are a crucial part of any commercial property transaction, helping buyers, tenants, investors and developers identify potential risks before becoming legally committed. From planning restrictions and environmental concerns to access issues and utility constraints, the right searches can uncover information that may affect a property's value, future use or development potential.

Helen Marsh, Partner in our Commercial Property team, explains the different types of commercial property searches that may be recommended, including Local Authority, Environmental, Water and Drainage, Highways and Utilities searches. She also outlines the potential issues these searches can reveal, how long they typically take, and the costs involved.

Read the full article to understand which searches may be appropriate for your transaction and why early due diligence can help avoid unexpected liabilities and support informed decision-making: https://shorturl.at/T1wmT
