Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) Increase For High Value Residential Properties

Posted: Wednesday, 6 April 2011 @ 12:20

From today (6 April 2011) residential property with a purchase price of more than £1m will be subject to a higher Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) rate of 5%.

This increase only applies to land which consists entirely of residential property. It does not apply to commercial or mixed used property where the SDLT rate remains at 4%
