Another stamp duty question- New build

[Sunster]

Hi
I am seriously considering buying a house which is a new build and under 1350 sq ft. I am in the process of selling my first home and so will be a second hand buyer. Would I still be exempt from paying stamp duty on the new build?

yes

Thanks Sloggi, that's a huge relief
