Bournville Stamp Duty Relief

Purchases of property in Bournville 'disadvantaged areas' are eligible for stamp duty. Areas designated are identified by local government ward or electoral divisions. Bournville residential property under £150,000 within one of these areas is exempt from stamp duty. If it is suspected that a property is located in a disadvantaged area, further enquiries are required to be made to the local council or authority. 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. This search may not be 100% reliable, particularly in the case of new builds.

Issues to consider when your lawyer is not on your Lender's panel

Panels of solicitors are maintained by mortgage lenders in order to undertake legal work on mortgaged properties. Increasingly however, lenders have lowered the number of firms which they will accept and allow to perform this work. If your lender does not accept your chosen solicitor, you must make a decision as to how to proceed; you could either obtain a mortgage from another lender, or instruct another firm of conveyancer who are on the panel. Generally, it is cheaper to have the same firm act both for you and your lender, but you could also choose to persist with both your first choice of lender and solicitor, and pay for a lawyer selected by the lender to carry out the relevant legal work. Be aware of the following, if you choose to remain with your first choice of law firm:

  • You must now pay the lender's costs in addition to your own
  • You will not get any priority from the lender's solicitors, as they will have many other cases underway, and you are unable contact these solicitors directly
