Do you pay council tax on the annex?

Nope. Even if it was payable, I don't think I'd need to pay any as the place is vacant.

We've got an annex. As long as the annex value is less than 1/3 of the house value it's normal stamp duty for purchasers.

I had to pay the surcharge anyway because I didn't sell my other house. Paid the surcharge on the whole value of the new place I bought which amounted to a lot of stamp duty! Thanks for the link.

Houses with an annex - Multiple Dwellings Relief

Just found out I can get a load of stamp duty back on the place I bought last year because it has an annex. Knew nothing about this relief until recently and certainly knew nothing about it at purchase. Anyone have any experience of this? I've asked an accountant to do the work for me but I'd imagine its not too difficult to make the claim yourself.
