Guys,
Has anyone purchase an owner occupier home in Qld lately? Is there a stamp duty that is applicable, like $10k on a purchase on $500k? I am NOT a first time home buyer, and last time I bought, which was 5 years ago there was no such thing. Feedback welcomed. |

This will help,
Navigate to stamp duty calculator and your answer for any pruchase price will be there. http://www.home-loans.com.au/loan-ca...rrer_id=600011 BTW $500K property, stamp duty will be $9500. |

It may not be a very wise time to be purchasing residential property following the steady rise since the early 90's there is likely to be either a bust or stagnant prices for the next decade.

We are selling and buying in the same market... so I'm not too worried about the market.
So according to that website, $9,500 is the stamp duty (which is what I suspected). When the hell did this stamp duty come into play? Also Tibbo, where did you get your table of info? It seems different to what I'm finding...? |

It came into play when the state Labour governments renigged on a promise to the federal Liberal government to drop stamp duties and accept GST. They now get both and have never had such income to waste .. er spend. |
