Husband and I are divorcing amicably. No solicitors involved. I’m buying him out of the house. I need to give him £300k to buy him out of our £900k property. Mortgage was £300k. So all is fair. I am using conveyancing solicitors for the remortgage.
Nisi applied for but not come through yet. Then we will apply for the consent order.
My question is, am I liable to pay stamp duty again on the property? I understand that I have to put the consent order number on the land registry form. Does anyone have any experience of this? I need to do everything in the right order to avoid a massive stamp duty bill. I asked the conveyancing solicitors but they won’t advise on this. Thanks.
