An eligible first home buyer pays $10,925 on an established home and no duty on a new home at $750,000. An investor buying the same established home pays $26,775.
Yes, unless a concession applies. Under the first home concession, an eligible first home buyer pays no duty on an established home up to $700,000, with a concession up to $800,000; no duty on a new home at any price; and no duty on vacant land at any price. Eligibility conditions apply.
Transfer duty on a $1,000,000 established home is $38,025 for an investor and $30,850 for a home buyer who will live in it.
Transfer duty is worked out from the dutiable value, usually the purchase price, using the published rates. At $750,000 the general rate is $17,325 plus $4.50 per $100 or part of $100 over $540,000. A home buyer who will live in it pays $19,600 at that price, using the lower owner-occupier rates. Any first home concession is then taken off.
These rates apply to investors and to any purchase that doesn't qualify for a concession.

| Up to $5,000 | No duty |
| Over $5,000 up to $75,000 | $1.50 per $100 or part of $100 over $5,000 |
