How this calculator works
  • For Australian states, duty uses each revenue office's published 2026–27 schedule, then applies owner-occupier and first home buyer concessions you're likely eligible for.
  • "Somewhere else" uses purchase price Γ— your % rate, minus any flat discount you enter.
  • The annual charge is a simple % of the same price, multiplied by the number of years you choose.
  • Not included: foreign purchaser surcharges, registration fees, pensioner and off-the-plan concessions, and grants like the First Home Owner Grant.
