    hi,

    say i was to buy a house under my name and then some time later add my girlfriend to the deed/mortgage or whatever and she did likewise. i assume this is ok and doesn't require me to pay stamp duty?

    Nice idea, but you're not the first person to think of it I can tell you.

    That avenue's well shut and you'll find it very hard to find a solicitor that would facilitate this type of transaction.
