Abolish and reimburse stamp duty for first time buyers
Abolish the unfair stamp duty tax for first-time buyers to help them secure a home for their family and eliminate the devastating long term financial damage caused by stamp duty preventing first time buyers from getting the best possible deal. (Offering controversial "help to buy" style schemes after first stripping first-time-buyers off their vital savings is no help at all!)
Restructure the stamp duty such as when applicable, it is applied exponentially with the cost of the property.
Reimburse part of the money already collected unfairly through stamp duty from first time buyers to help repay their mortgage sooner.
Introduce stamp-duty adjustments around London where £250k does not even buy a half-descent 2-bedroom home.
We are begging for help and JUSTICE.
