South Australia Stamp Duty FAQs
How much is stamp duty on a $700,000 home in South Australia?
Standard stamp duty on a $700,000 established home in South Australia is $32,330. First home buyers and owner-occupiers usually pay less — set those options in the calculator above for your figure.
When do you pay stamp duty in South Australia?
Stamp duty is a one-off cost paid around settlement, not an annual tax. Your conveyancer usually pays it to RevenueSA as part of settlement, so budget for it on top of your deposit.
Is stamp duty charged on the price or the property value in South Australia?
On the dutiable value — the greater of the purchase price and the property's market value. For a normal arm's-length sale that's just the contract price; a below-market or gifted transfer is assessed at market value.
Do first home buyers pay stamp duty in South Australia?
