If you’re buying your first home in England or Northern Ireland, you may pay less Stamp Duty than a standard buyer.
First-time buyer relief currently applies to purchases up to £500,000 — though thresholds and rates do change, so always verify with HMRC before you budget.
Other things to check:
🔹 Are you buying alone or jointly? Both buyers must be first-time buyers to qualify.
🔹 Have you ever owned property anywhere in the world? That affects eligibility.
We’ll always confirm your Stamp Duty position clearly before you exchange. No surprises. 😊
