Stamp Duty Relief for people who have to move due to unforeseeable life events
Provide stamp duty relief where individuals are required to move homes due to unforeseeable life events. These events include, but are not limited to, the need for accessible housing for new wheelchair users or individuals who can no longer afford payments on their current property.
In the UK, stamp duty relief for unforeseeable life events can offer financial assistance to individuals in need, like those requiring accessible housing or facing financial hardship. We believe this would demonstrate social responsibility, help stimulate the housing market, and enhance the Government's public image. A well-designed policy can strike a balance between individual support and fiscal responsibility.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
