Buying a property

First Home Buyer Choice

If you're an eligible first home buyer, you have the choice to pay an annual property tax instead of stamp duty.

If you signed a contract of purchase between 11 November 2022 and 15 January 2023, you can claim a refund of the stamp duty paid through the Revenue NSW website until 30 June 2023.

Use the First Home Buyer Choice calculator to help make an informed choice. The calculator is for informational purposes only and does not replace financial or legal advice.
