One month on: New data shows the impact of the Chancellor’s stamp duty holiday

"We haven’t yet seen any significant increase in properties falling through so it looks like most are going ahead regardless," says Tim Bannister, Rightmove’s Director of Property Data.

"The stamp duty holiday was perfectly timed to enable more people to improve their set up by moving," says Marsh & Parsons.

“We would urge the Government to undertake a full-scale review of the current stamp duty land tax system," says the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.
