Stamp Duty Land Tax is complex and ever-shifting, subject to more alterations since it was introduced in 2003 than any other comparable tax. The legislation governing it is now full of exceptions, exemptions and reliefs, aimed at covering the vast variety of property types and property buyers.
Not all of these are obvious to conveyancers and property solicitors who are generally inclined – thanks to lack of help from HMRC and conflicting messages from their regulator, the SRA – to differentiate simply between a whether a property is residential or commercial for purposes of SDLT calculation.
If you are one of the hundreds of homebuyers who think you may have overpaid stamp duty, please give us a call and one of our experienced tax advisers will be able to advise you accordingly.
You could be entitled for a Stamp Duty refund in the following scenarios:
- You have paid additional Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)on your second home and sold your main residence within 3 years of paying the additional 3% Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)
- You have paid additional 3% Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on a property which is uninhabitable
- You have paid additional 3% Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) with an annexe or granny flat on the grounds of your main home
