Primary purchase costs

What you pay when you buy

Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) is the main tax you will pay when buying property in England and Northern Ireland. The amount depends on the property price and your buyer status.

  • 01

    A non-resident surcharge is required to be paid by overseas buyers. It is an additional SDLT surcharge on top of standard rates. We can walk you through exactly what this means for your purchase.

  • 02

    A UK-based solicitor charges legal and conveyancing fees to handle the legal transfer of ownership. Budget for this separately from the property price.

  • 03

    Currency exchange can cost you if you move funds from TRY to GBP at the wrong time or through the wrong channel. We guide you on managing this transfer efficiently.
