Do new stamp duty rates apply to sites?

[Mr Ed]

Please say yes... It would mean a huge saving for us!! But can't seem to find a definitive answer anywhere........

No, they don't.

 

[Mr Ed]

I told you to say yes....... are you serious? That's so depressing

Sites are not residential property (unless acquired at the same time as a building contract).
