Stamp Duty?

[jojo31]

My partner owns a house and we are planning on buying a house together. I am a first time buyer and the mortgage will be in both our names. Will we have to pay stamp duty due to him already having a house (he is not selling it) Thanksbg

Sorry jojo31, but in order to qualify for first time buyer relief from stamp duty all purchasers must be first time buyers. see this link for more info: [broken link removed]
