In this episode of **London Property Digest**, we delve into the newly introduced 'mansion tax'—a high-value council tax surcharge targeting properties over £2 million. While intended to enhance fairness, its design flaws, particularly abrupt tax 'cliffs', may distort property valuations and transactions, especially in London's tightly clustered market. Join us as we explore how this policy could reshape the property landscape and what it means for homeowners and professionals alike.
