New Stamp Duty Rules

Published 1st of July, 2021


Half-day holiday…

Today (1 July 2021) marks a change in the Stamp Duty Holiday rules. Housing transactions completing between 1 July 2021 and 30 September 2021 pay no stamp duty on the first £250,000 for those buying their primary residence.

This means that the maximum benefit of the Stamp Duty Holiday halved on 1 July 2021. Between 8 July 2020 to 30 June 2021, there was no stamp duty to pay on the first £500,000 for those buying their primary residence.

Back to school in October

From 1 October 2021 Stamp Duty the stamp duty holiday comes to an end and becomes payable on house purchases costing more than £125,000 as the Stamp Duty rates and thresholds go back to their pre-pandemic levels.
