First-time buyer relief covers the SDLT relief available when purchasing a home in England. A solicitor assesses eligibility, complete incl. SDLT returns, and coordinates with HMRC to claim the relief. They gather and verify documents, advise on thresholds, and manage the transfer of funds and registration of title with HM Land Registry. The relief shapes the overall cost of buying for qualifying first-time buyers and can influence offer and funding decisions.
A solicitor handles the thresholds, calculates relief, prepares and submits the SDLT return, and liaises with HMRC and the seller’s side. They confirm eligibility, gather evidence, and ensure the title is properly transferred and registered, all within the timeline of the purchase.

I couldn't rate them high enough from beginning to end they were all great to work with Efficient Reliable Friendly. Especially MEGAN CALLAN who went above and beyond to get my case resolved. Always available for anything I needed to ask MEGAN CALLAN is the sort of Solicitor you want on your Team . Couldn't praise her work more.

Tagged solicitor Gareth Jones
Couldn’t recommend them enough. I don’t have 1 negative thing to say. Gareth was so helpful throughout the whole process. I found everybody responsive and informative. I can’t thank Gareth, Danielle and Max enough for their help while buying my first house. I have recommended them to everyone. All the horror stories you hear about solicitors during this process couldn’t be the furthest from my experience.
