Probate Relief for Property Developers

There are a number of reliefs specifically aimed at property developers but their complexity means that many developers will miss the opportunity to save tax. Relatus can advise you as to the correct amount to pay and assist you to reclaim overpaid tax in those cases.

Probate for Property Developers

Are you a Property Developer with Concerns over SDLT?

You could be due a refund if you have purchased a probate property in the last 12 months as a Property Developer.

If you or your company have purchased a probate property in the last 12 months and paid SDLT you may be due a refund. There are a number of conditions which must be met for this relief to apply but once satisfied you could be exempt from paying SDLT. Relatus can advise you whether the transaction satisfies the conditions for the relief and if applicable assist you to claim a refund of the overpaid SDLT.

If you have not yet purchased the property, we can provide a written opinion as to the applicability of the relief and assist your solicitor to ensure the correct amount of SDLT is paid at the time of purchase.
