How this is worked out

The price is split across the residential bands and each slice is charged at its own rate: nothing up to £125,000, 2% to £250,000, 5% to £925,000, 10% to £1.5 million and 12% above. Additional properties add 5% to every slice. First-time buyers under £500,000 pay nothing to £300,000 and 5% on the rest.

Worked example

  • Purchase price £300,000
  • Standard buyer

0% on the first £125,000, 2% on the next £125,000 = £2,500, 5% on the last £50,000 = £2,500

£5,000.00

Assumptions and limits

  • England and Northern Ireland only. Scotland charges Land and Buildings Transaction Tax and Wales charges Land Transaction Tax, both with different bands.
  • Residential purchases. Non-residential and mixed use property, leasehold premiums and the non-UK resident surcharge are not covered.
  • First-time buyer relief is lost entirely above £500,000, so the standard rates apply at that point.
