Commenting on the upcoming Property Roadshow event, Jane O’Donnell, Regional Sales Director for Countrywide, said:

“We are delighted and excited to announce the date for our first 2016 Property Roadshow event, which will take place on 16 March 2016 at Liverpool’s renowned Everyman theatre. This event promises to deliver an abundance of industry insights within estate agency, lettings, tax, financial services and Land & New Homes.

&ldqou;We believe that the 3% increase in stamp duty will be a hot topic, taking into account the average house price in Liverpool which is £132,340, a landlord or second home buyer purchasing a property at this price, will go from paying £147 in stamp duty to £4,117 from April 2016, a difference of £3,970. Also those looking to purchase a flat at the average price in Liverpool of £117,719, will go from paying no stamp duty to £3,532.”
