UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves has revealed a “mansion tax” in England as part of her Budget.
Four price bands will be introduced, rising from £2,500 for a property valued between £2m to £2.5m, to £7,500 for a property valued at £5m or more.
Reeves said this will be levied on owners and collected alongside council tax.
She says that this new surcharge will raise £400m by 2031 and will be charged on fewer than the top 1% of properties.
