Residential property rates
You usually pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on increasing portions of the property price when you buy residential property, for example a house or flat.
The amount you pay depends on:
• when you bought the property
• how much you paid for it
• whether you’re eligible for relief or an exemption
Rates for a single property
You pay SDLT at these rates if, after buying the property, it is the only residential property you own.
You will usually pay 5% on top of these rates if you own another residential property.
Rates from 1 April 2025
Property or lease premium or transfer value SDLT rate

The next £575,000 (the portion from £925,001 to £1.5 million) 10%

• 2% on the second £125,000 = £2,500
• 5% on the final £45,000 = £2,250
• total SDLT = £4,750
