Stamp Duty Land Tax - Residential property rates
You usually pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on increasing portions of the property price when you buy residential property, for example a house or flat.
The amount you pay depends on:
• when you bought the property
• how much you paid for it
• whether you’re eligible for relief or an exemption
Rates for a single property
You pay SDLT at these rates if, after buying the property, it is the only residential property you own.

You will usually pay 5% on top of these rates if you own another residential property.
