A PPR transfer is a transfer of dutiable property, being an estate in fee simple in land referred to in section 57H, if—

the transferee, or each transferee if there are more than one, is—

any of the following—

a natural person who is at least 18 years of age;

if such a person is under a legal disability, a guardian of the person;

if such a person is the principal beneficiary of a special disability trust, a trustee of that trust; and

a bona fide purchaser of the land for adequate consideration; and

any of the following intends to occupy the land as their principal place of residence—

if the transferee is a guardian, the person under the legal disability;

in any other case, the transferee or at least one of the transferees; and

the contract for the purchase of the land was entered into on or after 1 January 2007.
