我老公名下一套房子，想再买一套buy to let. 今天咨询律师，律师说第一套房子只有我老公的名字，第二套房子只在我的名下可以免交那3%的stamp duty。 是这样的吗？我一直以为结婚了不管房子只在一方名下，第二套还是要交那印花税的。
YOU DO NOT NEED TO PAY THAT 3 PERCENT ,BECAUSE IT WILL BE THE FIRST PROPERTY UNDER YOUR NAME
This solicitor is talking rubbish.
Anyway, he is supposed to collect tax on hmrc’s behaviour. If he didn’t collect extra 3% tax and you provided him with all information, the offence is committed by him not you.
Married couples & civil partnerships
For the purpose of property ownership, married couples and civil partnerships are seen as one unit. This means that if one person already owns a property, any subsequent residential purchase by either person will be seen as an additional property for both individuals.

必须要交的。
到底谁的答案对呀？ 是不是她家房子是老公婚前买的？ 就可以不算第二套了？
不管是否婚前婚后买 夫妻是作为一个个体对待的 所以３％是逃不掉的 除非你能要到法院的证明说你们婚姻不合并且分居
完全支持成龙大哥
Could you please stop creating confusion when you absolutely know nothing? Thanks.

如果真的律师这么说，那出事的时候应该是律师责任还是买主责任呢？
买我的房子吧，我给你3%返回好了
买我的房子吧，我给你3%返回好了，或者你找我，我有办法
律师说的是新政出来前的规定吧。作为律师应该对新政策理解透彻才对啊。
如果能有证据证明律师提供了各种信息（邮件之类的），之后有问题律师应该负责。他们也有职业保险可以保你的损失。不过3%应该是逃不掉的
Married couples living separately, who are separated in circumstances that are likely to be permanent, will now be treated individually and not as one unit.
这个是否应理解为法律上的分居？
you have to pay 3% surcharge, though you can pay yourself within 30 days after completion.
