What is stamp duty (transfer duty)?

Stamp duty (officially called transfer duty in most states) is a tax levied by state governments on property purchases. It is the buyer's responsibility and must be paid within 3 months of the contract date in most states.

Are there first home buyer grants as well?

Yes. The First Home Owner Grant (FHOG) provides a lump sum payment (typically $10,000-$30,000 depending on state) for eligible first home buyers purchasing or building a new home. This is separate from stamp duty concessions.

Do investors pay extra stamp duty?

Foreign investors pay an additional Foreign Investor Surcharge on top of standard stamp duty in all states (typically 7-8% additional). This calculator covers standard resident rates only.

When is stamp duty paid?

Stamp duty must generally be paid within 3 months of the contract date in NSW, VIC and QLD. In WA and SA the timing differs. It is typically settled at the same time as the property purchase.
