Costs Involved in Buying an Investment PropertyApart from the deposit required when purchasing an investment property, there are other expenses involved. These include: Stamp DutyThis is the most expensive cost and is based on the cost of the property you are purchasing. The rate varies from State to State and is paid to the State Revenue Office. Registration FeesOnce again, these are a State based fee and vary from State to State. They are payable to the Land Titles Office when you register documents that relate to the purchase of a property. Loan Mortgage InsuranceLoan Mortgage Insurance is payable if you are borrowing more than 80% or using a non-conforming loan. Mortgage Application Fee
