Stamp duty question

[Jimmy No Hands]

If I'm moving primary residence by buying an additional property first before selling my current, will HMRC refund the additional stamp duty when the initial house sells? I realise I'll be liable for the 2% but can you claim a refund of the 3% additional? (within a timeframe I assume)


Thanks chaps.

Cheers chaps. I could've probably Googled it, but I like this place.. ;-)
