Stamp Duty Concession
If you’re an eligible first home buyer, you’ll pay zero stamp duty when you build or buy a new home. The property value thresholds for stamp duty relief have been removed, which means the stamp duty exemption is now available for all eligible first home buyers who buy a new home (houses, flats, units, townhouses, apartments), an off-the-plan apartment, a house and land package, or vacant land to build a new home.
