Mortgage FAQs for Richmond upon Thames

What stamp duty would I pay on a £770,000 property in Richmond or Kew?
On a standard £770,000 purchase (home mover), stamp duty totals £29,000: 0% on £125k, 2% on £125,001–£250,000 (£2,500), and 5% on £250,001–£770,000 (£26,000). For a second home or buy to let purchase, the 5% surcharge applies across all bands, bringing the total to approximately £67,500. Many buyers in Richmond and Kew are also purchasing as part of a chain from other premium south-west London boroughs.
What is the commute like from Richmond or Twickenham to central London?
South Western Railway from Richmond reaches London Waterloo in approximately 20 minutes, and Twickenham takes around 25 minutes. The District line also runs from Richmond, reaching Victoria in around 40 minutes, though most commuters prefer the faster train. Richmond is widely regarded as offering one of the best quality of life to commute time ratios in Greater London, which sustains its premium pricing.
Are there good schools in Richmond upon Thames that drive mortgage demand?
Richmond upon Thames consistently has some of the highest-performing state schools in Greater London, and the private school provision — including Hampton School and Lady Eleanor Holles — is exceptional. School catchment premiums within the borough can add £50,000–£150,000 to the price of a family home near the most sought-after primaries. We help families structure their mortgage around the total cost of purchasing within a specific catchment.
