SDLT Autumn Statement

[Rangeroverover]

Just thinking through, I am convinced that the extra 3% SDLT on investment/second homes will get repealed in the autumn statement. I fancy a punt with £2-3k so whose shares will get the most uplift don't want to do CFD's or anything clever; many years ago I was a currency/futures trader and happily have forgotten all about it.

I've seen this statement now several times on here, but absolutely nowhere else. What is leading people to this conclusion?

Generally jungle drums, also alot of chatter on various property forums

Its the sensible thing to do, I may be talking my book, but I'm happy to have a small punt, I did well selling what used to be called "cable" in my day $/£ on Brexit so thought I would back another hunch, just need to figure out what to buy

I would love to see the Making Tax Digital programme scrapped.

That phrase is still around, you'll be pleased to hear.

OP have you picked anything up regarding the impending BTL mortgage tax relief changes?
