First Time Buyer Stamp Duty Exemption
First time buyers purchasing properties worth up to £250,000 will no longer have to pay stamp duty. So parents who are home owners (or previously owned a home) can't buy together with their children as joint purchasers to help them get on to the property ladder, if they want to take advantage of this new stamp duty exemption. There are however other ways that parents or guarantors can help, so why not contact one of our Mortgage Advisers at Blacktower to find out more. - 01372 844344.

UK Winter Financial Focus 2009
A financial roller coaster of a year. 2009 started gloomily and for much of the first three months the outlook grew ever blacker. Then came the change.
Stamp Duty Threshold
The stamp duty threshold was increased on 3 September 2008 to £175,000. We thought it would be a good time to remind you that on the 1st January 2010 the threshold will revert back to £125,000, unless the Government extends the concession. That means that if you buy a property and the purchase price is £125,000 or less you will not pay any stamp duty.
