The easiest way for HMRC to collect enormous tax receipts must be through Stamp Duty. The conveyancer does all the hard work for the taxpayer and the taxman, ensuring that the tax sum is correct and then has to pay it to HMRC in 14 days. #SDLT

Want to know how many homes changed hands in September across the UK?
166,000. That's 63% more than in a normal year.
That means that we've seen more than 1.5 million transactions in the last 12 months, first time that's happened since Feb 2008.
"Technically superb" and "genuinely caring": congratulations to all the lawyers across our #privatewealth team who have been recognised in the newly published edition of #ChambersHNW. We're delighted to once again be a #topranked firm! @ChambersGuides

@HenryPryor@Penningtonslaw It can take an age. ID itself no longer such a big deal since we adopted @Thirdfort but source of funds can take weeks particularly for overseas buyers. The concept is alien & regarded as prying & intrusive by many so barriers go up. It is very often confused for proof of funds.
Managing expectations is now the biggest challenge for us @HenryPryor and it can take many days to even get started while we sort out ID and source of funds and we will be up against it as 31 March approaches @Penningtonslaw
