For eligible ACT buyers, the Home Buyer Concession Scheme can remove conveyance duty on qualifying residential property transactions from 1 July 2026.

The ACT Revenue Office states that the previous property value limit and income threshold have been removed from 1 July 2026. Other eligibility rules still apply, including ownership-history and residence requirements.

Important: government assistance and lender approval are separate. A buyer may qualify for an ACT concession but still need to satisfy the lender's affordability, credit and property requirements.
