First Time Buyers get boost worth up to £2,500As mentioned in Wednesdays budget, first time buyers have been handed a pre-election boost worth up to £2,500 after the chancellor scrapped Stamp Duty on homes costing up to £250,000.
The move will hopefully boost the property market which showed signs of slowing at the start of this year after the government ended a temporary tax holiday on the purchase of properties worth less than £175,000. This is a significant move which will aid the ongoing property market recovery into 2010 and beyond and make a huge difference to the affordability for first time buyers.
The new £250,000 threshold, which takes effect at midnight 18th March 2010 on and will last for two years, means nine out of 10 people buying their first home will not be liable for this tax. A fantastic saving for any first time buyer. Previously people had to pay 1% of the property price if the home was worth more than £125,000.
The move will be partly funded by an increase to 5% in the duty on homes costing £1million or more, which will see buyers of these properties having to hand over a minimum of £50,000 in tax. That change will come into force next April.
Thousands of people are suddenly able to get onto the property ladder, however, buyers will be eligible only if they have never bought a home in Britain or overseas in the past. It also must be their only or main home, a move designed to exclude young buy-to-let investors. For example a man who gets divorced, moves out of his family home and wants to buy another one will not qualify for the relief.
