<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

Nova Rêve arrives as Reve Group bets on Castle Hill's next growth phase

Sydney’s property market is known for high prices, competitive bidding, and mounting pressure on first home buyers. But change is on the horizon.

From late 2025, eligible first home buyers in New South Wales will have access to a new federal government initiative aimed at addressing affordability: the Help to Buy Scheme.&nbsp;

<h2>What is the Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

The program introduces a shared equity model intended to reduce the upfront cost of entering the property market, particularly in high-demand urban areas such as Sydney.

The scheme operates under a shared ownership structure in which the federal government takes an equity stake of up to 40 per cent for new homes, or 30 per cent for existing dwellings. This arrangement allows eligible buyers to significantly reduce their loan size and avoid the added cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

Under this model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required. The government’s contribution is not a loan but a co-ownership stake in the property. As such, there is no interest or rent charged on its portion.

Because the government’s equity combined with the buyer’s deposit typically meets or exceeds the 20 per cent threshold, LMI does not apply. The remaining balance, generally between 60 and 70 per cent of the property’s value, is financed through a standard home loan with a participating lender.

The government's equity in the property remains in place until the buyer chooses to repay it voluntarily or until the property is sold. Buyers can buy back the government’s share over time, in increments of at least five per cent, depending on their financial situation.

There is no fixed repayment timeline, but the amount to be repaid will be based on the property's market value at the time of repayment, not the original purchase price.

<h2>How do you qualify for the&nbsp;Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

To qualify for the Help to Buy Scheme, applicants must meet the following conditions:

<ul>
	<li>Be an Australian citizen at least 18 years of age.</li>
	<li>Be a first-home buyer who does not currently own property.</li>
	<li>Intend to live in the property as their primary residence.</li>
	<li>Earn less than $100,000 per year for individuals, or $160,000 for couples.</li>
	<li>Purchase a property within the regional price caps, currently $950,000 in Sydney, though this is expected to rise to approximately $1.3 million ahead of the program’s launch.</li>
</ul>

While the Help to Buy Scheme does not solve affordability challenges across the board, it does offer a more accessible pathway for a defined segment of the market, particularly younger buyers with moderate incomes who have been priced out of traditional lending routes.

The scheme is expected to commence in NSW in late 2025, as part of a national rollout.

Under the new model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required

Help to Buy Scheme: What first home buyers in NSW need to know

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a government initiative designed to help eligible first-time home buyers by offering financial assistance towards the purchase or construction of a new home.

While the FHOG is a nationwide program, it is administered separately by each state and territory, meaning the eligibility criteria, grant amounts, and property requirements can vary depending on your location. This means that the amount available and the conditions attached to the grant will differ, so it is important to check the specific guidelines for your state or territory.

It’s important to note that the FHOG is just one of several incentives available to first home buyers. In most states and territories, the grant is not linked to stamp duty exemptions or concessions, with the exception of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The FHOG is typically a one-off payment, reducing the overall cost of purchasing or building a new home before any stamp duty concessions are applied.

Below, we provide a breakdown of the First Home Owner Grants available across Australia, outlining the specific details for each state and territory.

Every First Home Owner Grant for new property by state

In the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable architecture and environmentally conscious design, systems and ratings in place can help determine the energy efficiency of residential buildings in Australia.

Australia has multiple building rating systems that evaluate energy efficiency and sustainability in existing and new building designs.

Some systems assess individual building components, while others provide an overall rating for the entire structure.

A rating system ensures that homes are comfortable and energy-efficient, whether you are buying, renovating, or building.

NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) is a common way for new homes to meet energy efficiency requirements.

As new developments continue to shape the urban environment, understanding NatHERS ratings becomes essential for developers and homeowners. This article delves into the concept of NatHERS ratings, their significance, and how they contribute to creating energy-efficient homes.

<h2>What is NatHERS?</h2>

NatHERS is a national initiative implemented by the Australian government to promote energy efficiency in residential buildings. The scheme aims to provide a standardised method for assessing the thermal performance of homes, considering factors such as insulation, orientation, ventilation, and building materials.&nbsp;

NatHERS ratings are the most common way new homes meet the National Construction Code's (NCC's) minimum energy efficiency requirements.&nbsp;

NatHERS assessments provide thermal and whole-home ratings for new homes, townhouses, and apartments.

The rating helps evaluate the energy performance of buildings, guides homeowners and developers to make informed decisions about the energy efficiency of their properties, and encourages the construction of more sustainable, comfortable, and cost-effective homes.

<h2>How NatHERS Ratings Work</h2>

NatHERS ratings are determined through four accredited software tools (AccuRate, BERS Pro, FirstRate5, HERO) using a calculation engine CSIRO developed to predict building temperature based on various factors.

The tools can model complex effects of building mass, insulation, window size, and other elements.

The outcome is a star rating that reflects the building's overall thermal efficiency, indicating how well it can maintain a comfortable indoor temperature without excessive reliance on heating or cooling systems.

The star rating scale ranges from 0 to 10, with a 6-star rating being the minimum requirement for compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC).&nbsp;

Achieving a higher star rating demonstrates a commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability, as the building is better equipped to minimise its environmental impact and reduce long-term energy costs.

Anyone can use NatHERS tools, but accredited assessors can provide certified ratings and professional advice.

<h2>Benefits of Higher NatHERS Ratings</h2>

Energy Efficiency: Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings are more energy-efficient, requiring less heating and cooling energy. This reduces the structure's carbon footprint and lowers occupants' energy bills.

Cost Savings: Homes with higher NatHERS ratings are generally more energy-efficient, resulting in reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling. This translates to lower energy bills for homeowners, making sustainable living environmentally friendly and economically viable in the long run.

Environmental Impact: Lower energy consumption directly translates to a reduced environmental impact. Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings contribute to the overall goal of mitigating climate change by lowering greenhouse gas emissions associated with heating and cooling systems.

Improved Comfort: Buildings with high NatHERS ratings offer better thermal comfort to occupants. Proper insulation, well-designed ventilation, and optimal orientation maintain a consistent and comfortable indoor temperature, providing occupants with a more enjoyable and healthier space.

Market Value and Desirability: Higher NatHERS ratings can enhance the market value of a property. As energy efficiency becomes a more significant consideration for homebuyers, a well-rated building may attract a premium price and stand out in the real estate market.

Compliance with Building Codes: NatHERS ratings are a vital component of the National Construction Code (NCC), and compliance with these ratings is often a mandatory requirement for new developments. Local councils and planning authorities may set minimum energy efficiency standards that must be met to obtain development approval.

The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) is a crucial initiative shaping the future of energy-efficient, resilient, and cost-effective homes. With its recent upgrades, NatHERS has evolved into a world-leading tool for the building sector, supporting the global commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

What is a NatHERS rating in new off the plan apartment developments?

Mixed-use developments have gained significant popularity across Australia in recent years due to their unique blend of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces.

Unlike traditional single-purpose developments, mixed-use projects offer a harmonious integration of various functions within a single locale.

Residential units seamlessly coexist with commercial establishments, retail outlets, dining venues, entertainment hubs, and recreational facilities, with the combination not only enhances convenience but also fosters a vibrant lifestyle and a sense of community.

<h3>Convenience and accessibility</h3>

Mixed-use developments are designed with convenience in mind. They often integrate residential units with commercial spaces, retail outlets, restaurants, and recreational facilities, creating a self-contained community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

The proximity allows residents to enjoy the convenience of having essential amenities and services within walking distance. Whether it's grabbing a cup of coffee, going grocery shopping, or accessing healthcare services, everything is conveniently located, saving residents time and effort.

<h3>Vibrant lifestyle and community</h3>

One of the major advantages of mixed-use developments is the vibrant lifestyle they offer. With a diverse range of amenities and communal spaces, residents have ample opportunities to interact, socialise, and build a sense of community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107714 project_image_fid=214122]

The presence of parks, community centres, and shared spaces fosters a lively atmosphere, encouraging residents to engage in various activities and events. The vibrant lifestyle within these developments creates a unique sense of belonging and camaraderie among the residents.

<h3>Potential for higher rental yields and property value appreciation</h3>

Mixed-use developments tend to attract a broad range of tenants and buyers due to their versatile nature. This high demand can result in higher rental yields for investors and potentially lead to property value appreciation over time.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=212887]

The integration of commercial and retail spaces attracts businesses, which can provide a stable rental income stream. Additionally, the popularity of mixed-use developments often drives up property values, making them a potentially lucrative investment in the long term.

<h3>Enhanced security and maintenance</h3>

Mixed-use developments typically have comprehensive security measures in place. With controlled access points, CCTV surveillance, and professional security staff, residents can enjoy enhanced safety and peace of mind.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108019 project_image_fid=212658]

Additionally, these developments often have dedicated maintenance teams responsible for the upkeep of common areas, landscaping, and infrastructure. This ensures that the overall appearance and functionality of the development are well-maintained, creating a pleasant living environment for residents.

<h3>Live-work-play balance</h3>

One of the key attractions of mixed-use developments is the ability to achieve a desirable live-work-play balance. The integration of residential and commercial spaces allows residents to live closer to their workplaces, reducing commuting time and improving work-life balance.

The proximity to various amenities and recreational facilities encourages an active and healthy lifestyle. Residents can easily access fitness centres, parks, restaurants, and entertainment options, all within the same development, leading to a more fulfilling and convenient way of life.

The top five reasons to buy in a mixed-use development

When buying a property, everyone needs to be aware of the additional costs that come as part of the buying process.

Often the largest outlay, after the deposit which goes to the bank, is stamp duty.

<h2 style="line-height: 1.38;">What is Stamp Duty?</h2>

Stamp duty is an extra tax to pay the government when you buy land, a property, and other certain assets.

It happens when the legal ownership is transferred. It can also be known as property transfer duty or transfer duty.

<h2>Who pays Stamp Duty?</h2>

In some circumstances, you may get an exemption. For some states, you won’t have to pay for stamp duty if you are a first home buyer or a pensioner for houses under a particular price. There are also stamp duty concessions, where you may be entitled to a discount.

<h2>How much does Stamp Duty cost?</h2>

Each state has different rules which affect how much you need to pay. These rules can affect the rate you pay, and the timeframe you will need to pay in. Before you buy land or a property, make sure you check the up-to-date information for your state’s stamp duty.

You can use a free stamp duty calculator online to see approximately how much you’ll need to pay. Find out if you’re eligible for an exemption by enquiring on a project via Urban!

Overall, the stamp duty you need to pay will depend on:

The bank tweeted its announcement at 3.45pm on Wednesday.
In its subsequent press relaase NAB Personal Banking executive Lisa Gray said NAB had offered the lowest standard variable home loan rate of the major banks for 34 months and was committed to staying the lowest of the majors for 2012.
“Decisions on lending rates are not taken lightly, but we are determined to provide our customers with certainty through our commitment to stay the lowest of the major banks for the rest of 2012."

Victoria has scrapped its first-home buyer bonus for new homes in favour of a broader market stimulus through first-home buyer stamp duty cuts.
But only some within the property industry have welcomed the Victoria government’s stamp duty cuts for first-home buyers.
State Treasurer Kim Wells says all first-time buyers spending less than $600,000 will benefit from the new policy.
Although the axing of the popular first-home buyer bonus is expected to impact on new home sales, Wells was adamant the best way to help first-home owners was to give them all a stamp duty discount.
A 20% discount had previously been introduced, with another 10% discount to follow from January 1, building eventually to 50%.
The separate government first-home owner grant of $7,000 for homes under the value of $750,000 will continue.
The grant is not a federal grant as state governments fund it as part of the intergovernmental agreement on finances.

But the state government first-home buyer bonus of $13,000 for newly constructed homes will expire in June.
“The provision of $65 million to fund the increase of stamp duty cuts for first-home buyers is welcome, given the severe economic constraints in this budget," the Real Estate Institute of Victoria's Enzo Raimondo says.
“The REIV called for the government to refocus assistance for all first-home buyers, and we welcome that change," he says.
The REIV says the bonus for newly constructed homes has done its job, with refocused assistance for all first home buyers a good move.
The bonus for new homes was worth $13,000 for a city dwelling and $19,500 for a country property.
But Housing Industry Association Victorian director Gil King says not extending the bonus beyond June was ''short-sighted'', especially following the significant slowdown in new home sales across Victoria.
''The state government is running the risk of undoing all the inroads we have made over the last few years in alleviating Victoria's housing shortage,'' King says.

Estate agent John McGrath has sold his seven-bedroom Duffys Forest retreat for about $4.05 million. He paid $4.7 million for it when he bought it in April last year, before undertaking some renovations. Its sale represented a 13% drop on last sale price.
McGrath had bought it intending to use it as a weekend getaway but changed tack after the premium penthouse above his then Walsh Bay apartment went on the market.
In January McGrath <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/new-south-wales/john-mcgrath-finds-walsh-bay-prices-have-been-watered-down-title-tattle/2012013153185">sold his redundant Walsh Bay apartment on Sydney Harbour for $5.5 million</a>, falling slightly short of its $5.95 million purchase price in 2009.
In the meantime McGrath upgraded to a pricier $6.95 million Walsh Bay apartment, his third upgrade within the landmark complex, taking the opportunity of very subdued pricing at the pointy end of the property market.
The Duffys Forest property took 14 months to sell before its purchase by McGrath in April last year, having been listed with $6 million hopes in February 2010.
It was listed last June after its renovations with $5.5 million hopes by McGrath through McGrath Frenchs Forest and then from February with $4.4 million-plus hopes in conjunction with WE Jamieson Forestville after its incorporation into the McGrath network.
The new McGrath office is the group’s seventh in the Northern Beaches, having opened its first office in Manly in 2003. It will service the suburbs of Forestville, Frenchs Forest, Killarney Heights, Belrose and Davidson.

Award-winning photographer Sean Izzard and his wife, architect Amanda, have sold their contemporary Stanwell Park residence for $1.15 million.
It takes in views of the ocean and Bald Hill escarpment. The architecturally designed home is now set in landscaped tropical gardens on a 550-square-metre block, which cost $425,000 in 2001.
The Izzards' house was built about six years ago to a design by Amanda.
It sold through Amanda Moore and Vanessa Denison-Pender at McGrath Thirroul, having been listed with initial $1.3 million-plus hopes, which were adjusted to $1.2 million prior to its March auction. It’s been sold after auction.
Closer to the ocean, businessman <a target="_blank" href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/new-south-wales/peter-holmes-a-courts-nsw-coastal-retreat-listed-for-sale/2011113052622">Peter Holmes à Court's clifftop home</a> sold to Jackie Vidor, wife of Phil Staub, the executive chairman of General Pants, the retail group that owns Surf, Dive &amp; Ski, Jetty Surf and Billabong, just days before Christmas for $1.9 million through McGrath.

Garden Island, near the historic village of Carrington at Port Stephens, has been listed for sale.
It now comes with a pavilion-style home on its 1.6-hectare holding nestled in the inner harbour of the NSW mid-north coast town.
It’s about 950 metres to shore.
<img src="/images/stories/gardenisland1.jpg">
With views extending from Nelson Bay around to Soldiers' Point and Lemon Tree Passage, the house was designed by Mullumbinby-based architect Philip Pratt in a mix of Australian rural architecture and Japanese Modular design.
The house features separate pavilions with Colourbond steel external walling and roofing.
The almost adandoned overgrown island last sold without the house for $480,000 in 2001, having been held by the pioneering White family since the Australian Agricultural Company disposed of some land holdings in the 1880s.

Its vendors are carpet warehouse sellers Wendy and Ken Derry, who married almost 50 years ago after meeting on Luna Park's ghost train as teenagers.
The couple were no strangers to the water, having lived on the Central Coast waterfront after relocating from Sydney's Smithfield about 30 years earlier.
Clearing the island took about six weeks, and the couple enlisted friends and family to help pick up rocks and hand-clear the prickly vine and lantana choking the native vegetation. The builder, Laurie Murphy, came from Bundabah, near North Arm Cove.
It was a huge challenge then to complete the house, they told Sally Croxton of the Newcastle Herald on its 2003 completion.
Linda Derry, the listing agent from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.derrysrealestate.com.au/garden_island.htm">Derry's Real Estate Prestige Property</a>, says the there was no price to display on the marketing due the the unique property and area.
"We have had nothing to compare," she told Property Observer.
"The only indications have been from prospective purchasers ranging from $4.5 million to $7 million."
The deeds to the island show the island was bought by Dribold White from the AA Company in 1885 for £30.

Bill Evans, the Westpac chief economist who first forecast the current RBA interest rate reduction cycle, has indicated that the cash rate will go lower than his long-held 3.75% estimate.<o:o:o:o:o:p></o:o:o:o:o:p>
<o:o:o:o:o:p></o:o:o:o:o:p>
"A combination of the guidance from the RBA with regard to the likely slippage between its cash rate and financial conditions and ongoing economic evidence that lower rates are required point to us now expecting that the low point in this cycle will be 3.25%.
"The next cut of 25bps is likely to happen in August when as we expect the RBA will get further confirmation that inflation remains firmly under control," he says.
"The final cut in the cycle is likely in the December quarter probably in November with all of this contingent on the impact that the Reserve Banks' cash rate has upon overall financial conditions," Mr Evans said today after the RBA cut the cash rate to 3.75%.
"A close read of the governor's statement does not reveal any strong arguments that would normally justify such a deviation from the usual policy of 25bp moves.
"Of course the major change in the data flow since the April board meeting was the lower than expected inflation print and the Reserve Bank does recognise that arguing 'inflation will probably be lower than earlier expected'.

Evans suggests future cuts will depend on the RBA's assessment of the likely impact of a change in the cash rate on financial conditions.
"Two variables are critical here: firstly the exchange rate and secondly private borrowing rates," Evans notes.
"On the exchange rate there is some concern that "the exchange rate remains high even though the terms of trade have declined somewhat".

"However, it is clear that the major source of concern for the Reserve Bank will be the response of the commercial banks to a change in the cash rate.

"In a recent paper the RBA has pointed out firstly that the most significant influence on lending rates was funding costs and secondly that over the last 12 months funding costs have risen by 20-25bps relative to the RBA cash rate.
"In other words, funding costs have not fallen by the full 50bp fall in the cash rate that we had seen in November and December.

"Our interpretation of that paper was the RBA is recognising that the impact of its cash rate on overall financial conditions is no longer as clear as it was prior to the global financial crisis."

Meanwhile analysts suggest Australia's big four banks are unlikely to pass the full 0.5% in official interest rates through to mortgage holders.
Westpac, National Australia Bank (NAB) and the Commonwealth (CBA) gave no immediate indication of their response to the Reserve Bank of Australia's lowering of the cash rate by a surprise 50 basis points to 3.75%, while ANZ are locked into their announcement next week.
<o:o:o:o:o:p></o:o:o:o:o:p><o:o:o:o:o:p>Evans notes w</o:o:o:o:o:p>hen "back in July last year, we forecast that the low point in the rate cycle would be 3.75% it was on the assumption that the degree of easing in financial conditions resulting from the cumulative 100bp rate cuts which were assumed in that forecast would be equivalent to double the level of easing, which occurred in November/December 2011 resulting from the cumulative 50-basis-point cut.
"If as the Reserve Bank itself clearly expects this total level of easing of financial conditions will undershoot the guidelines we saw in November/December then it is necessary for us to lower our cash rate target," he says.

John Barnes, the former head of Deutsche Bank Australia, and his wife, Joy, have listed their Frank Lloyd Wright-style Seaforth waterfront reserve property.
It’s a 1,954- square-metre largely level block on Castle Circuit that the Sydney developer Don Rose and wife Janice selected as their own home when developing the circuit in the 1960s.
It’s been listed by Richardson &amp; Wrench Seaforth father-son team Glen and Tim Wirth for May 26 auction with expectations in the high $3 millions.
It’s surrounded by national park on three sides with lawns, garden, entertaining decks and terraces, some with 180-degree views over Middle Harbour to the city skyline.
It comes with direct access to the waterfront via a path to a beach at low tide and the ability to launch to a possible mooring.
The Barnes family have been at the property for 20 years. Don and Janice Rose developed Castle Circuit as the Harbour View Estate in the early 1960s when it was “just a mountain”.

Some $999 million was held in residential exchanged pre-sale contracts.
“In our development division, we continue to focus on de-risking future income with pre-sales,” he says.

Today, all eyes will be on the Reserve Bank amid speculation that the cash rate will be eased by at least 25 basis points.
The RBA has often faced pressure from politicians and business leaders to reduce interest rates. But it seems that the objectives of politicians and independent monetary policy-makers are not always in agreement. Is there a way for the RBA to arm itself against meddlesome political rhetoric?
Ben Bernanke, chair of the US Federal Reserve, announced recently that the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomc.htm">Open Market Committee</a> would publish its views on future interest rates. This move towards greater transparency brings the Federal Reserve into line with other central banks that publish interest rate projections, including New Zealand, Norway, and Sweden. Should the RBA adopt a similar approach?
An advantage of publishing longer-term interest rate projections is that the markets and other government departments have a clearer indication of what the future holds.
These projections are not promises; the planned path of interest rates will evolve in response to monetary conditions. Communication of the uncertainty about the plan would allow the public to gauge the odds that the current monetary strategy will require a rethink in the future.
Unfortunately, there are circumstances in which politicians and the public favour adjusting the monetary strategy to accommodate inflationary pressures, regardless of the inflation target.
The job of the independent central bank is to resist short-termism. Recently, the pressure in Australia has been strong.
“In the current economic environment, should the RBA consider it appropriate to change the cash rate, this could deliver widespread benefits for households and business – noting that a number of sectors of the economy most under strain are arguably more sensitive to interest rates”. Julia Gillard (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.canberratimes.com.au/national/pms-salvo-to-reserve-drop-rates-20120418-1x817">from a speech to a business audience, Perth, April 20, 2012</a>).
“The Reserve Bank has made the wrong call consistently and compounded those wrong calls. For some bizarre reason in this country, it’s like it is religious heresy to criticise the decisions of the RBA”. Paul Howes (talking to ABC Radio, quoted in The Australian, April 11, 2012).
And the chair of industry funds management, Garry Weaven, added further to the pressure. “At the end of the day, no-one is truly independent. If the requirements, both for the government and for the Reserve Bank, is the greatest good of the Australian people and, in particular, the specific requirements in the Reserve Act of full employment, then, you know, on independence of thought, fine, but in the end you must take account of the full picture.” Garry Weaven (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.abc.net.au/am/content/2012/s3479814.htm">talking to ABC News</a>, AM, April 18, 2012).
The RBA would be less vulnerable to political pressure if armed with an interest rate path. Then, to be taken seriously, a critique of policy would require a new path for interest rates, justified on an alternative assessment of monetary conditions. Simple claims of “the wrong call” wouldn’t suffice.
How difficult would it be for the RBA to publish longer-term probabilistic interest rate projections? Other countries, such as Norway, have found this route to be feasible.
Closer to home, the RBA Shadow Board at the Australian National University’s Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis (CAMA) currently provides long-term interest rate projections from individual <a target="_blank" href="https://cama.anu.edu.au/ShadowRBAboard.asp">shadow board members</a>. The CAMA Shadow Board projections for Australia, which are not forecasts of actual RBA Board behaviour, reveal a considerably diversity of views for longer-term interest rates.
Some experts – like some politicians – think that the monetary stance ought to be looser in 12 months. Others are not yet persuaded, seeing rates likely to rise over the next year. The pledge of future fiscal surpluses has not been enough to convince these independent experts that rates will be lower in the longer term. A key advantage of using monetary policy experts on a board is their monetary policy expertise. Monetary policymakers should not be easily swayed by government rhetoric.
Longer-term interest rate projections offer the RBA a feasible route to greater transparency and enhanced operational independence from short-term political interference. An expert-based RBA board would be a further improvement.

Nebraska, the much-renovated 1921 Alexander Stewart Jolly-designed Gordon bungalow has been listed with $1.5 million hopes through McGrath agent Melissa Lynch-Hill.
The three-bedroom, three-bathroom Yarabah house has been again sympathetically renovated since the Green family bought it from the Uloth family in 2002 for $890,000.
It’s now being marketed as having a floorplan suited to modern family living, and the family also might want a separate self-contained studio at the rear of the 1050-square-metre property. Title Tattle recalls it was in 1991 when architect Amanda Jean was commissioned to rebuild collapsing entry steps, design the children's bedrooms and a bathroom, and create that separate studio.
It was sought by ASX surveillance head Jim Berry and wife Janet, who sold in 1999 for $850,000. The presumably very rustic Alexander Stewart Jolly-designed stone and timber bungalow had traded at $133,000 in 1981 as a two-bedroom, two-bathroom deceased estate.
It was one of the last houses designed by the inter-war architect. Some say its low-pitched gable roof with dark-stained vertical timber boarding and superb interior timber joinery closely resembles the American West Coast stick style of Greene &amp; Greene's Gamble House.
Veranda-room architecture was the first topic of the current Sydney lecture series that traces housing styles in Australia hosted by the Historic Houses Trust as part of the Sydney Open program.
It kicked off last week with author, historian and conservation consultant Dr James Broadbent and Scott Robertson, director of Robertson &amp; Hindmarsh Architects, addressing bungalow homes.
