As long as it was bought after July 2000 and it was never lived in by the purchaser then they were eligible First Home Buyers when it came time to buy an owner occupied property. It's a technicality that not many people know about. I'm not sure how it is in NSW, but it would be similar. But as mentioned best to check the Revenue Office. Cheers, Tom Re: Stamp Duty Question 11Jul 07, 2020 7:25 pm Please help. Im buying untitled lot for $305,000. Title is expected on Nov. I plan to build 2-storey budget is $400,000 max after I receive the title. Im a first home buyer. Question, do i pay stamp duty for the the value of the house (land+build) or lesser based on vacant land value? State is WA. My broker says i will still need to pay stamp duty in excess of 430,000 because my land loan and construction loan will combine at the end of the build. But I read that if I buy vacant land stamp duty is exempt up to 300,000? Re: Stamp Duty Question 12Jul 07, 2020 7:39 pm ziri1002 Please help. Im buying untitled lot for $305,000.

I’m not familiar with WA stamp duty, but it could be there is still stamp duty on their mortgages (which is small).

Yes two contract - 1 contract for land and another for the builder. Re: Stamp Duty Question 15Jul 08, 2020 12:18 am If you qualify for FHOG then yes you should get your bank to apply for the FHO rate of duty for you. Do it as soon as you can as it takes them a while. If you’ve already paid the duty you can make a claim to get your money back. If you are buying this as vacant land, the following thresholds apply: Vacant Land § To be eligible for the FHOR of duty, the unencumbered value of the vacant land must not exceed $400,000. § Where the dutiable value of the land does not exceed $300,000, no duty is payable. § Where the dutiable value of the land exceeds $300,000 but does not exceed $400,000, duty is payable at a rate of $13.01 for every $100, or part of $100, by which the dutiable value exceeds $300,000.
