April 2025 SDLT changes
From 1 April 2025 the temporary nil-rate band reverted: 0% threshold dropped from £250,000 to £125,000, and first-time buyer relief shrank from £425,000 to £300,000 (with the FTB cap moving from £625,000 to £500,000). That reform alone added thousands to the SDLT bill on a typical £300k–£500k purchase.
