Moving home in England
Plan an English move with the right buying, rental and local-charge information.
For a move in England, start with the practical checklist and add the buying or renting steps that apply to you. Confirm the status of property dates before making dependent bookings.
England-specific checks
England uses Stamp Duty Land Tax for applicable purchases and Council Tax for local property charges. The tenant overview explains private-renting changes introduced in 2026; older fixed-term checklists may not match the current arrangement.
Read the buying and rental guides below, then record actual costs and confirmed dates in My Move. If the other property is in another UK nation, check that side of the move separately.
