Are you eligible for Blackburn stamp duty relief?

Around 2,000 wards nationwide are eligible for stamp duty relief. Areas designated are identified by local government ward or electoral divisions. For homes bought for less than £150,000, this relief may be available. Normal rates of stamp duty apply for purchases greater than £150k. For a purchase below the threshold, it is worth making a simple postcode search to find out if a property is in a disadvantaged area. 'Mixed use' property, including a shop with an apartment above, may also receive stamp duty relief.

Disadvantaged areas in Blackburn include Audley, Bastwell, Corporation Park, Higher Croft, Queen's Park, Shear Brow, Wensley Fold, Meadowhead, Mill Hill.

Road and Rail Construction

Buyers should be aware of all transport works and other issues in the local area which may affect their Blackburn property. Local searches for road and rail works reveala broad range of construction and development projects, and bureaucratic issues such as parking restrictions. Mortgage lenders may consider that a property will lose value if a particular project is undertaken, such as an adjacent rail line, and so may be unwilling to lend if this is suspected.

Major Transport Schemes in Blackburn:

Freckleton Street to Montague Street link road, Pennine Reach scheme and M65 capacity improvements.
