This is a trick one!!! I'm looking for some advise.

My BF and I are thinking of buying a new house. I have already bought a house (which we live in at the moment), so I have availed of the 0% stamp duty already.

My BF has not bought a property before. We are looking at a house that is 1388sq ft. If we buy it jointly will we have to pay the stamp duty as I am not a first timer or will we get away with it as he is? :confused:
 
This has been done to death on this forum, if you do a search you'll find the answer a million times.

If it is a new house under 125 square metres, there is no stamp duty payable for owner occupiers.
 
To be fair to Sherman it is a bit frustrating when people don't bother browsing or searching a few threads before posting the same question for the nth time.
