Can anyone clarify the SDLT liability regarding title splitting properties as part of a remortgage process?
ie One property – 2 houses on site – mortgage on whole (say 500k) – transferred A to A and B for no consideration then Transfers of Part for each individual property done from A and B back to A – both properties mortgaged for 250k to pay off the existing mortgage.
Would there be any difference if it was a building where A transfers to Company then leases are done of 2 flats?
