Yes. It will be very interesting. I am guessing the market will pick up with extra interest from home buyers up to 1 Aug to get the lower stamps. If you had to move, why wouldn't you do it before Aug to save $5-10 thousand in stamp duty taxes.

To Kabaly:
The rates for LAND are the same as houses in QLD. If you would like to calculate the exact amount of samp duty for a home or land in QLD I have provided the link to the Office of State Revenue. Hope this helps...http://goo.gl/qMhMC
