Stamp Duty vs. Land Tax: What are the Implications for FHBs?

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate

Or commit to an annual land tax bill of a much smaller amount?

In this episode of The Elephant in the Room, Chris and Veronica discuss what the NSW legislation really means for first homebuyers. Should they pay their stamp duty or land tax? What are the pros and cons of both options?
