You pay VAT on the charges you pay when selling and then get screwed again by paying stamp duty and VAT on charges on the purchase.
Perhaps not so bad if you buy cheaper then you sell but buying equal or more expensive.... shock
I'm not sure how fluid the hosing market is but if a bit slow/stagnant, stamp duty and or VAT being reduced may make a difference.

When we moved from Surrey up to Nottingham it cost us just over £10000,
£6000 to the government, and £4000 odd to the theEstate Agent.
