Stamp duty threshold changes

The new changes to the stamp duty threshold on vacant land will rise from $350,000 to $400,000 and will phase out at $500,000.

For first home buyers purchasing new homes, the stamp duty threshold will increase from the current $650,000 to $800,000 and will phase out at $1 million.

The change to the thresholds will only apply to newly-built homes and vacant land, not to existing homes, and will last for a 12-month period, commencing on 1 August 2020. Other purchases will continue to benefit from existing schemes.

This means as a new home buyer, you could be entitled to a benefit of up to $32,335.
