Want to save Thousands on SDLT (Stamp Duty Land Tax)? Here ZebraInvest runs through our 5 favourite ways to save when purchasing property.
1. Multiple Dwellings Relief (purchase 2 or more properties in the same building, at the same time, to split each flat price and reduce total paid).
2. Mixed use and commercial Stamp Duty (combined with Multiple Dwellings Relief).
3. Uninhabitable properties (those lacking kitchens, bathrooms and in such a state that no one could physically live in a property).
4. Probate and deceased property being traded by property investment companies.
5. Fixing broken chains.
Cornerstone are great accountants and can help claim SDLT back on your behalf, I've used them for two purchases.
