The reduction in rate to 24% starts to work in your favour if your profits are higher than £75k. So for example if your profit is £200k, you will pay £5k less tax, if you are higher rate earner. Another tax that benefits the rich to the detriment of the poor.

You pay the 3% stamp duty rate on second properties. Upon my understanding you sold your home which meant that you no longer had any properties in your name. The very next property you buy would not have the 3% stamp duty high rate because you’re only have one property in your name. The very next property be at your home or a rental property you would pay the 3% additional rate stamp duty because you already have a property in your name.

@@Simon-Misiewicz-US-UK-Taxes Thanks for your message Simon. I had one BTL at the time of selling but since I was "moving home", I didnt have to pay the extra stamp duty so there was never a case where I had 0 properties. When I sold my main home I have gone down from 2 to 1. Now the issue is, the one that was meant to replace my main home didn't. Plans changed and I ended up living in one of the BTL ones (the one I completed on the same day).
