I am separating from my dh, a slow process. I've decided as I am fortunate to have some means to buy a house to move into with dcs.
As I am still married I have to pay the higher rate of stamp duty as technically I am buying a second home. I'm worried that I won't get divorced within the 3 year period allowed as dh is in complete denial and these things take so long, also it is an extra cost now I could really do without. Is there any way round it anyone has been advised or experience of?
My solicitor is saying that I need to appoint a stamp duty expert which again is costly and I'm thinking surely this is not that unusual. So I'm appealing to mumsbet wisdom instead.
