Buyers rush to beat stamp duty changeConveyancing solicitors have been swamped with clients demanding they complete house purchases ahead of the imposition of a stamp duty surcharge. From Friday, higher rates of stamp duty applying to buy-to-let will mean the bill on a £250,000 home will rise from £2,500 to £10,000. Estate agency Haart said activity in London had increased by 35% this week, with staff organising viewings at irregular hours and hand-delivering documents to push through last-minute transactions. Separately, the FT reports that prices for properties in London’s wealthiest areas have dropped 6.7% since their 2014 peak.
