Stamp duty in Queensland

Queensland's transfer duty uses a progressive bracket system with a separate home concession rate for owner-occupiers. The home concession rate is significantly lower than the general rate — on a $600,000 property, the home concession saves about $7,175. Queensland's First Home Owner Grant is $30,000 for new homes, one of the most generous in Australia.

Policy note: Queensland's $30,000 First Home Owner Grant (for new homes up to $750,000) is the highest in Australia. Combined with stamp duty concessions for homes up to $700,000, first home buyers purchasing new builds can save over $40,000 in government costs compared to investors.
Foreign buyer surcharge: Queensland applies an 8% Additional Foreign Acquirer Duty (AFAD) surcharge on foreign buyers (increased from 7% on 1 July 2024).

Buying in this price range

The $500,000 to $800,000 range covers established houses in middle suburbs and larger apartments. Many first home buyer concessions phase out in this band — NSW FHB concessions taper between $800,000 and $1,000,000, VIC between $600,000 and $750,000. This is where stamp duty starts to feel substantial: at $700,000 in NSW, duty is approximately $27,000, equivalent to several years of savings for many buyers.

FHB concessions phase out — check your threshold

Several states apply sliding scale concessions in this range. In VIC, the FHB concession phases from full exemption at $600,000 to zero at $750,000. In NSW, concessions apply up to $1,000,000. A property priced $10,000 above a threshold can cost thousands more in duty — negotiate the purchase price with this in mind.

Stamp duty vs higher deposit trade-off

At $700,000, stamp duty in most states is $15,000-$30,000. This is money that cannot go toward your deposit, potentially pushing you into Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI) territory. Some lenders allow stamp duty to be capitalised into the loan, but this increases your total interest cost.

Owner-occupier vs investor rates differ

In VIC (PPR concession) and QLD (Home Concession), owner-occupiers pay significantly less duty than investors. On a $700,000 property in QLD, the home concession saves about $7,175. Make sure your conveyancer applies the correct rate.

Typical buyers: Upgraders, young families, first home buyers near capital cities, and established professionals purchasing their second property.
