Examples
• H owns a main residence. He is purchasing a new main residence, but rather than selling his previous main residence he will rent it out. At the end of the day of the transaction H owns two properties and is not replacing a main residence (as he is not selling his previous main residence), so the higher rates will apply.
• Mr A marries Mr B. They each own a property (which they purchased individually before they were married and used as their respective main homes). Mr B then sells his former main home and purchases a new property to rent out.
At the end of the day of the transaction Mr A and Mr B own more than one residential property and are not replacing their main residence, so the higher rates will apply.
• T helps her son, S, purchase his first residential property. She gives him money towards a deposit and acts as a guarantor on the mortgage, but will not jointly own the property with him. At the end of the day of the transaction S will own one property, so the higher rates will not apply.
