Hi
I need to remortgage to take ex off (they were paid off some time ago).
I contacted two Mortgage brokers from MSE, neither can tell me if i would pay stamp duty!
1) paid £58950 in 1995
2) valuation approx £170 now
3) paid ex off in 2014
4) remortgage for £56500
ease help! to be honest the advice i have received from two different brokers has been 'pants' little knowledge on this and terrible recommendations for my specific case.
