  • Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)

Stamp Duty land tax

Or SDLT is in its simplest form a tax payable on the purchase of properties. However, if you make a gift of a property and the responsibility for the mortgage passes, SDLT can be payable.

Further, regularly people pay too much SDLT by not taking account of the reliefs available including multiple dwellings relief.

If you are buying a property with an annexe or even with more than one kitchen and living areas get in contact to see if MDR is available to you.

Further, if you are considering buying more than one property or piece of land or exchanging properties please get in contact to discuss how best to structure the deal.
