How this is worked out

3 of these charges appear on every single listed unit (Stamp duty, IFMS (maintenance deposit) and Registration). 6 are conditional and depend on the unit you pick: GST on 79 of 86 units, Car park on 77 of 86 units, PLC (preferred location) on 75 of 86 units, Club membership on 71 of 86 units, Floor rise on 43 of 86 units and 1 more.

The 3 statutory items — Stamp duty (4.5% to 7%), GST (5% to 12%) and Registration (1% to 4%) — are charged on the agreement value, which is the base price after PLC, floor rise, parking and club are added, not on the base price alone. That is why they look larger than their headline rate. The rate is not one number: it is the one recorded on each listing, and it moves with the state the project sits in and with whether the unit is a home or a commercial one.

One of these is refundable rather than spent: IFMS (maintenance deposit) — Refundable, held by the association.

Rates and deposit conventions change. Pinly reproduces exactly what each listing records and does not independently verify tax rates — check the current position with the developer and your lawyer before you transact.
