Someone i know has asked me if they will be a first time buyer when purchasing a house with the proceeds of a settlement in a separation/divorce case.
The property is 350k. They did not have their name on the deeds of previous properties/land that were owned by the other party to the marriage.
Also at 53 this person is wondering could they get a mortgage for a portion of the property (maybe 30%)for 15years plus and what lender would be best for this?
What stamp duty will they have to pay on this property if they do not qualify as a first time buyer. It is a 2 year old previously owned property. The person is buying it to be an owner occupier.
