About Tax Worked Out
Tax Worked Out gives clear, free answers to UK property tax questions, worked out from the official rates for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Why Tax Worked Out exists
Buying a home is stressful enough without guessing the tax. Many calculators only cover England, hide where their numbers come from, or leave out first-time buyers, second homes, non-UK residents and commercial property.
Tax Worked Out puts every case in one simple tool for all four UK nations, shows the band-by-band working, explains the result in one plain sentence, and links every number to the official page it comes from. It is free, with no sign-up.
How we keep it accurate
Every rate comes from HMRC, Revenue Scotland or the Welsh Revenue Authority, and was last checked on 30 October 2026. Read exactly how we calculate, including every source we use.
Independent
Tax Worked Out is an independent website. It is not affiliated with HMRC, Revenue Scotland or the Welsh Revenue Authority. Results are estimates based on the official rates, not tax or legal advice. Your solicitor or conveyancer will confirm the exact amount.
