WA first home buyer stamp duty

Based on WA transfer duty rates (residential) as at July 2026. WA first-home rates → · WA Department of Finance →
First-home relief is not modelled for Western Australia. Standard transfer duty is shown.
Estimates only. Assumes an Australian-resident buyer and no foreign-purchaser surcharge. Verify with a conveyancer.
How first-home stamp duty works in WA
At $750,000 the general Western Australian transfer duty in this model is $29,741, plus the Landgate fee. A first-home flag does not reduce that result here.
That is a labelled gap, not advice that no concession exists. If you are eligible for a published first-home or principal-place concessional rate, RevenueWA’s own tools will be lower than this estimate.

Common questions
- How much stamp duty do first home buyers pay in WA?
- This calculator shows the general schedule, not a first-home concessional rate. At $750,000 that is $29,741 plus the Landgate fee. Confirm the current concessional treatment with RevenueWA.
- Does ticking first home buyer change the WA stamp duty calculator?
- No. Owner-occupier concessional rates are published by RevenueWA and are not modelled. The figure stays on the general table.
- Is the First Home Owner Grant included in this WA duty figure?
- No. The grant is a separate payment. This page is transfer duty only, and even then it is the general table.
