Considering potential 2025 stamp duty adjustments for second homes, should I accelerate my buy-to-let purchase plans for a mixed-use property (commercial downstairs, residential upstairs) before the end of 2024?
Quick Answer
Accelerating a mixed-use purchase to beat potential 2025 stamp duty changes is complex, as commercial property is generally exempt from the additional dwelling surcharge, but the residential part is not. Evaluate the specific property's split and current tax rules.
