Residential rates became progressive in December 2014. This has an impact on calculating SDLT on linked transactions. Then, from 1 April 2016 a 3% surcharge was imposed, but was changed significantly on 22 November 2017 – the date when first-time buyer relief was also introduced. Topics include:

  • The surcharge on additional dwellings and dwellings bought by companies.
  • The types of dwelling that may be surcharged
  • The two exemptions in detail, and some anomalies.
  • The changes made on 22 November 2017
  • Differences between buying single and multiple dwellings.
  • The application of Multiple Dwellings Relief to the surcharge.
  • The elements of first-time buyer relief.
