Frequently Asked Questions
What is stamp duty?
Stamp duty (or stamp duty land tax / property transfer tax) is a tax you pay when purchasing real estate. The amount depends on the property price, your buyer status (first-time, home mover, or investor), and your jurisdiction's tax bands.
Do first-time buyers pay less stamp duty?
In many jurisdictions, yes. For example, in the UK, first-time buyers pay no SDLT on properties up to £425,000 and 5% on the portion between £425,001 and £625,000. Properties over £625,000 receive no first-time buyer relief.
Is stamp duty the same as closing costs?
Stamp duty is one component of closing costs. Other closing costs include legal fees, home inspection, appraisal fees, lender fees, and title insurance. Stamp duty (or transfer tax) specifically is the government tax on the property transfer.
