Fewer than one in 10 properties for sale online in England are now exempt from stamp duty, new research has revealed.
The findings by Rightmove reveal just how few homes are available to buy without purchasers being hit by the tax.
It said only 9 per cent of homes for sale on its website have an asking price of £125,000 or below – the threshold below which no stamp duty is paid if the property is being purchased as a main home.
