"Western Australian Government has announced Stamp Duty rebates of up to $50,000 for all buyers (local and foreign buyers) purchasing off-the-plan apartments in a bid to stimulate the state's struggling property sector, slow construction industry and create jobs.
How it works:
v Available to buyers who sign pre-construction contracts to purchase a new residential unit or apartment in a multi-tiered development
v No cap on the purchase price or value of the unit or apartment
v Purchasing more than one property will make you eligible for multiple rebates
v The discount will also apply to Transfer Duty and Foreign Buyers Duty
v Starting effective immediately for the next 2 years (between 23 October 2019 and 23 October 2021)
Foreign buyer savings:
