Quick Question. Owned a buy to let property for 10 years, never lived in it and been let out from day one. Never owned a main residence as been living with parents, since birth. Now about to purchase my first main home residential property, do I still need to pay the additional 3% SDLT?

Thanks, I thought I could get away with it as I have never brought a main home.D.L said:
