      Cheaper house? (£20k SDLT = £600k house)

      Defer purchase until you actually have the money?

      I don't think your convenyancer will give you the option to not pay them the SDLT before completion.

        Would the solicitor go ahead with completion if he did not have the funds in place?

          We think this is 'the' house otherwise we wouldn't be looking until we had all the funds in place... it's pretty unique.

          I did wonder that too. Conveyancing quotes include the SDLT and I know they expect to pay the SDLT for you on completion but I do not know if they would countenance letting you be responsible or not.

            I would take out the money and if you need to buy a car etc use a credit card/loan.

            I remember I had to pay everything including stamp duty to their client account BEFORE contracts where exchanged. They then screwed up by not informing the land registry until I noticed a few months later.

                Some people choose to even if they don't need to.

                  They do when they're trying to buy a house they can't afford.

                  Credit cards and loans will, of course, affect mortgage affordability.

                    You buy the house first then if you need to buy a car, because yours is soo broken it can't be repaired, you use a credit card/loan.
