🏠 Stamp Duty Update – Time to Buy Before the Rates Rise! 🏠 If you’ve been thinking about buying a home or making an investment, now is the time to act! With changes to Stamp Duty on the horizon, here’s what you need to know: 💰 Current Rates: £0 - £250,000 (or £425,000 for first-time buyers) = 0% £250,001 - £925,000 = 5% £925,001 - £1.5m = 10% £1.5m+ = 12% 🔑 Investors & Second Homes: If you're buying an additional property worth over £40,000, an extra 3% applies on top of the standard rates, which rises to 5% from 31 October. ⚡️ Why Act Now? The current lower Stamp Duty rates (up to £425,000 for first-time buyers and £250,000 for others) are set to change in March 2025. To benefit from the current rates, you’ll need to have completed by April 1st—and it typically takes around 3 months to sell from sale agreed! 🏃♂️ The time to buy is now! Get in touch with us today to secure your property before the changes hit: 📲 WhatsApp us: 07786 473196 ☎️ Call us now: 01823 339034 #StampDutyUpdate #TimeToBuy #PropertyInvestment #HomeBuying #McKinlays #ActNow #PropertyMarket
