If you buy a 300K residential investment property in the UK after April 1st 2025, you'll pay£26,000 in stamp duty.
But if you buy a commercial property for the same price, it''' cost you just £4,500.
I’m guessing you'd like to take a closer look at commercial!
So how do you get started in this sector? Is it viable as a remote strategy? How do you go about picking an area? And what tools could you use for your desktop research?
Suzi Carter is a fully trained Chartered Surveyor with over 25 years’ experience in commercial property, first in the corporate sector with the likes of CBRE and Kingfisher and more recently as an investor in her own right, so she’s well placed to talk about today’s topic.
