The tax on £350,000 is worked out in slices. Each part of £350,000 that falls in a band pays that band's rate, and the table adds the slices up to reach £7,500.
A first-time buyer at £350,000 pays £2,500, because the relief gives a larger slice at a nil rate. To pay £2,500, every buyer in a joint purchase has to be a first-time buyer, and the home has to become their main home.
A buyer who will own more than one home after buying at £350,000 usually pays the higher rates, 5% above each standard rate, which gives £25,000. Someone who sells their main home and buys a new one for £350,000 does not normally pay them, and HMRC sets time limits on that rule.
The same £350,000 home in Scotland would pay £8,350 in Land and Buildings Transaction Tax, and in Wales £7,500 in Land Transaction Tax, at the main rates for a buyer moving home. Wales has no first-time buyer relief, so a first-time buyer there also pays £7,500.
The figures for £350,000 assume a freehold or the premium on a lease, a wholly residential property and a buyer resident in the UK. A buyer who is not resident pays a further 2% on each rate, which the £350,000 figures leave out.
