Sorry for the eyeroll and completely agree on the cost of moving in general, which when paired with items above has all but changed the traditional model of the property ladder and moving up/down as life needs change. Stamp duty holidays when things go a bit sideways demonstrate that an active property market and continued upward rising prices, or at least no drop in value (in London at least) trumps all.
Dormers; functional but shit.
These sorts of extensions are driven by Stamp Duty more than anything. When moving house to get more space has a £100k deadweight loss the incentives are all screwed up.
The last part of your comment triggered a huge eyeroll I am afraid.
