Common questions

How much Stamp Duty on a £300,000 house in England?

For someone who owns no other home and is not a first-time buyer: £5,000 (0% to £125,000, 2% on the next £125,000, 5% on the rest). A first-time buyer pays £0.

Who pays the higher rates?

GOV.UK says the higher rates apply when you buy a residential property for £40,000 or more that will not be the only such property you own, and you have not sold your previous main home; they are 5%% on top of the standard rates.

When must it be paid?

GOV.UK says send the Stamp Duty Land Tax return and pay within 14 days of completion; a solicitor or conveyancer usually does this on completion day.
