Anyone a Conveyancing Solicitor?

[Whatnotea]

Apologies if this is in the wrong place I have no idea where to put it.

If you are in the process of selling your current main residence to buy another main residence but also have a 20% interest in an inherited property - are you liable for the higher stamp duty charge on the new property?

Anyone?
Asking for an older relative. I think she maybe liable for the higher rate and want to check before I worry her.

It is possible that they are not liable. I know someone who avoided payi g in similar circumstances but it depends on a number of factors. Might be better asking to move this to legal.

If they are on the deeds for the other house they are most likely going to have to pay the higher rate for the second unfortunately. If you call a Conveyancing Firm and ask for a quote, they should be able to advise you on this!
