How does the government/mortgage companies know who is a first time buyer?
I always thought that there was a register somewhere when there was a tax implication but how will they work out who is eligble for stamp duty and who is exempt on the budget £250k thingy?
Also what happens if say you sold up 15 years ago went abroad and came back becoming a first time buyer again?
Theres lots of reasons people need to get on the housing ladder again so why can't everyone be helped with mortgages up to £250k
Also how could someone buying say a £3M property as their first property ever really be taken seriously as a first time buyer??
Could a government make life anymore complicated if they really tried?
