Hello, I'm a newbee to this forum so apologies if I make any mistakes!
I'm looking to buy a house at the moment that is very close to a stamp duty threshold. I'm not a FTB so I will be paying stamp duty.
I think that I could do a deal with the vendor to buy some contents that would satisfy his aims of achieving the price he is demanding for the house (up to €8K).
Q - If the price for the contents takes me over the stamp duty threshold would revenue chase me for the higher SD level on both purchase & contents?
Q - How would this appear on contract or would there be a separate contract for the contents? (Or would if just be a cash transaction as suggested by the EA?)
Q - Does anyone check on the lists of contents to see if they are valued properly?
