Post-Completion Stamp Duty Refunds - Claim Back What’s Yours

Already completed on your purchase? You may still be entitled to a stamp duty refund. Many buyers and even solicitors miss legitimate reliefs and end up overpaying. We specialise in reclaiming SDLT where:

Probate Properties

As a property trader, purchasing a property from Probate can reduce your stamp duty bill

Mixed Use

The property qualifies as mixed-use (not solely residential)

Second Home Surcharge

You paid the 5% second home surcharge but later sold your main residence

Group Relief

The transaction qualified for group relief or other overlooked exemptions
