Lighthearted topic name but still an area of concern. I am confused after reading so many articles on the web. I'm sure that somewhere on the forum my question has been answered already but there always seems to be something additional that doesn't exactly tie in with my situation and it's the detail that gets you in the end.
I think that my situation is simple but it is still difficult for me to sort out the (internet)advice wheat from the advice chaff.
I own the house that my wife and I live in. The mortgage has been repaid and was always in my name only. My wife owns a flat which she rents out. We would like to move to the coast which means that I sell our current residence and I buy the new property in my name only. My wife will retain her rental property. I will not have a mortgage on the new property.
My wife and I have lived together for 16 years but only got married last year.
Will I get caught by the higher SDLT as a consequence of getting married please?
Thanks in advance
