Hello,
I have been looking around this forum for answers on my stamp duty problem but I can't find one that is the same (Sorry if there already is one and I missed it)
My girlfriend bought a new house by herself around seven years ago and it is the current house we are living in.
We are thinking of buying a second hand house now for somewhere in the region of €260K to €270K. She would like to keep the original house and rent it out.
Seeing as I have never bought a house before, if the house is in my name and I am the primary name on the new mortgage do we have to pay stamp duty?
Do our circumstances change a lot if we get married?
I would be very gratefull for any help.
