What’s Changing with Stamp Duty?
In April, major changes to stamp duty will come into effect. Currently, first-time buyers pay no stamp duty on homes valued up to £425,000, but this threshold will soon drop to £300,000.
These changes will still offer first-time buyers a reduced tax burden, potentially saving thousands on homes within the new £300,000 exemption limit.
A Boost for Homebuyers
With the stamp duty changes approaching, many buyers are expected to race against the clock to complete their purchases before April. However, those starting their property search now may find it challenging to finalise transactions before the new rules take effect.
