Selling, buying or transferring a property

Purchase, sale or transfer of more than one residential property

You may be purchasing or transferring more than one of your residential properties. If so, you need to notify the Local Property Tax (LPT) Branch about each property.

The property details of the residential properties involved may not have been listed in the Stamp Duty return. If not, you should submit the details to the LPT Branch on the Bulk upload template. There are two Bulk upload templates:

• Bulk upload template 2013 to 2021. This template is for sales or transfers with more than one property, up to and including 31 October 2021.
• and
• Bulk upload template 2022 to 2025. This template is for sales or transfers with more than one property, on or after 1 November 2021.
