How we worked it out

Updated as you change the numbers.

  1. Standard rates: 0% up to £125,000, 2% to £250,000, 5% to £925,000, 10% to £1.5 million, 12% above.
  2. £125,000.00 at 0% = £0.00; £125,000.00 at 2% = £2,500.00; £50,000.00 at 5% = £2,500.00. Total £5,000.00.

Method and assumptions

Rates from 1 April 2025. Each rate applies only to the part of the price inside its band. Buyers of an additional home pay 5% more on every band (from 31 October 2024), and non-UK residents pay a further 2%.
