Western Australian Government has announced Stamp Duty rebates of up to $50,000 for all buyers purchasing off-the-plan apartments in a bid to stimulate the state's struggling property sector, slow construction industry and create jobs.
How it works:
Available to buyers who sign pre-construction contracts to purchase a new residential unit or apartment in a multi-tiered development; | |
No cap on the purchase price or value of the unit or apartment | |
Purchasing more than one property will make you eligible for multiple rebates | |
The discount will also apply to Transfer Duty and Foreign Buyers Duty | |
Starting effective immediately for the next 2 years (between 23 October 2019 and 23 October 2021) |
This rebate also builds on the generous stamp duty assistance that is already available to first home buyers in WA. For example, a first home buyer purchasing an apartment valued at $450,000 would currently pay around $3,800 in duty. The rebate will reduce this to just $960.
