Extended holiday The one-year increase in the threshold for SDLT on residential property to £175,000 is extended by a further four months to 31 December 2009. After that, the 1% rate will again apply to purchases of residential property for consideration above £125,000 in general, or £150,000 in "disadvantaged areas". Once the threshold is exceeded, SDLT applies to the whole of the consideration: the charge on consideration of £176,000 is £1,760, not £10 (1% of the excess over £175,000).
