I was just looking at this today. I believe what is happening is that Stamp Duty was temporarily raised from £125K to £175k until December 2009, whereby it then reverts back to £125k. Just like the VAT rate was lowered temporarily until December 2009. Don't take this as gospel, but I looked at a few websites to find out about the Stamp Duty. Check here: http://www.mortgages.co.uk/mortgage-...tamp-duty.html it gives lots of info on Stamp Duty. Cheers
