On 3 December 2014, the Government announced changes to Stamp Duty Land Tax on residential properties. The tax is now graduated rather than a flat rate. Buyers will make a saving or pay the same if the price is £937,500 or less. The Government believes that 98% of buyers will make a saving.

Very good service

I am very thankful to Winston solicitors for helping me complete on my sale and purchase in just a couple of months. Communication was frequent, and I could always get hold of them when I needed to. The InTouch app was a brilliant feature for me to be able to track the sale.When the solicitor I was assigned went off unexpectedly, my case was still dealt with efficiently. Amanda and Joe were particularly good at keeping things moving, and keeping me in the loop, and I’m very thankful to these two for chasing and getting the sale through so quickly.I would recommend using Winston’s, and would use them again myself in the future.

Their ability to anticipate potential issues and address them swiftly was truly impressive and made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and well-managed.

Amr and Joe were so helpful, I would recommend them to everybody. We had a house move with lots of hurdles and I always felt looked after, and that everything would be actioned quickly on my end. Both Joe and Amr were super responsive to emails, I never had to chase them. I have had a faultless experience, I cannot recommend them both enough!
