Is it yet known if Labour are to keep the £250,000 threshold. I understood this was going to revert back to £125,000 from March 2025 under the previous conservatives.

It is almost certain that there will continue to be stamp duty at some level above some threshold.marksmen10 said:Is it yet known if Labour are to keep the £250,000 threshold. I understood this was going to revert back to £125,000 from March 2025 under the previous conservatives.
I do not recall anything clearer than that from the campaign.
There is a King's Speech that may give an indication if anything wholesale is proposed in relation to SDLT. It is on Wednesday and the pre-speech teaser is here - https://www.gov.uk/government/news/kings-speech-puts-growth-at-the-heart-of-legislative-agenda--2
Failing that you will need to wait until the Budget / Financial Statement which will be in the Autumn.
Anything beyond the above is pure speculation.0
