Stamp duty (also called transfer duty in Queensland) is a government tax payable when you purchase a property. The amount depends on the purchase price, the type of property, and whether you are eligible for any concessions.
Stamp duty in Queensland is calculated on a sliding scale based on the purchase price. The higher the purchase price, the higher the duty. Use the calculator above for an estimate based on your specific situation.
Yes, they may. First home buyers in Queensland can be eligible for stamp duty concessions, depending on the purchase price and whether you’re buying a new home, vacant land, or an established property.
The exact concession will vary based on your situation. Speaking with Dan or one of our team early on can help you understand what you may be eligible for and ensure these savings are factored into your overall budget.
Stamp duty is generally not included in your home loan and is usually paid upfront using your own funds. This is why it’s important to factor it into your savings plan early.
Planning for these costs upfront can help avoid surprises when you’re ready to purchase, and ensures you have enough funds in place alongside your deposit.
In Queensland, stamp duty is typically paid at settlement when you complete the purchase of your property. Your solicitor or conveyancer will usually organise this as part of the settlement process, so it’s handled smoothly on your behalf.
First home buyer grants, schemes and concessions can make a real difference to your upfront costs. Book a free call and Dan can confirm exactly what applies to your situation.
