    Which state? the stamp duty varies from state to state.

    NSW would be :-

    $5490 for stamp duty on the purchase
    $1500 – $2000 legals (should be able to do it a bit cheaper but depends on what searches/inspections you decide to do)
    $769 mortgage stamp duty (depending on the amount you borrow)
    $1000 – allow for adjustment of rates/other variables ( just in case)

    This is just a rough guide. I recommend you also borrow to cover any shortfall on rental income to the loan repayments for the first year just in case.

    Answer
    Normal Conveyance Rates / stamp duty as of 2005/2006 financial year
    $100,000 to $250,000 equals $2,200 plus $4 per $100 or part thereof above $100,000 (my calc this equals $6200 )

    Special Rates apply for first home buyer grant recipients though

    You have to factor in legal costs (conveyance), new loan fee probably $700 (added to morgage), Title search fee and Morgage insurance (may be added to loan) and a deposit to seller in cash also.
    Deposits usually 10% thats $20,000 before settlement.
