SDLT Uninhabitable Property Claim Form.

Hello All, my brother paid the higher rate of SDLT when he purchased a derelict property (there was a tree growing up through the middle of it). A company approached him about reclaiming the SDLT, but I said I would try to claim it back for him, to save losing a chunk of it. I have searched everywhere on the government website for the form to fill in, but I cannot find it. Does anyone have any suggestions or even better a link please to the form? or even the form name? Thank you so much!!
