Land Transaction Tax statistics: April to June 2018

This statistical release presents official statistics for Land Transaction Tax.

These initial estimates are provisional. We will revise these estimates in the next statistics publication. This is because organisations are still able to report further transactions for June. Organisations have 30 days after the date of the transaction to report them to the WRA.
