In September 2022, Liz Truss and her government announced a reduction of Stamp Duty Land Tax in England and Northern Ireland, as part of their commitment to support homeownership and promote mobility in the housing market, in turn supporting economic growth. This is hoped to increase property transactions due to better propositions, particularly for first-time buyers.
This measure increases the amount that a purchaser can pay for residential property before they become liable to Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) in both England and Northern Ireland, increasing the residential nil-rate tax threshold from £125,000 to £250,000. While this number is increased from £300,000 to £425,000 for first-time buyers. We searched England and Northern Ireland to discover homes under £425,000 perfect for purchasers looking to get on the property ladder.
