The top £350,000 of the price falls in the 7.5% band, which accounts for £26,250 of the £36,750 total.
£750,000 sits exactly on a band boundary, so any amount above it is taxed at the next rate up.
Wales has no first-time buyer relief, so first-time buyers and movers pay the same.
A second home pays the Welsh higher rates instead: £73,700 in total.
