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.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

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.

Tagged solicitor Fay Rothery

I was very uncertain about which direction to take when I first sought advice from Fay, but her assertive, clear manner immediately helped me find clarity. She speaks with confidence, and it shows in the way she frames her answers — direct, structured, and genuinely reassuring. Her guidance made my decision‑making straightforward, and I left the one‑hour consultation feeling informed, supported, and relieved. I’m delighted with the service I received and would happily recommend her to anyone seeking clear, confident legal advice.
