As with all taxes, the Government keeps the SDLT regime under review.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Purchase price of property</p></td><td><p>Standard rate paid on portion of price within each band</p></td><td><p>Higher rates paid on portion of price within each band</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Up to £125,000</p></td><td><p>0%</p></td><td><p>3%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Over £125,000 and up to £250,000</p></td><td><p>2%</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Over £250,000 and up to £925,000</p></td><td><p>5%</p></td><td><p>8%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Over £925,000 and up to £1,500,000</p></td><td><p>10%</p></td><td><p>13%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Over £1,500,000</p></td><td><p>12%</p></td><td><p>15%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 22/03/2017 14:25:05 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
