<Anchor> The



Democratic Party has proposed a tax law amendment. The point is that starting in 2023, people with multiple homes will no longer receive the same tax benefits when selling their home.



So, the purpose of multi-homeowners is to sell their houses by next year, and reporter Hwa Gang-yun covered whether the sale would come out as intended.

A single homeowner who has owned and lived for more than 10 years is subject to transfer tax after deducting up to 80% of the gain from transfer when selling a house.



Multi-family homeowners who sold their house to become a single-family home owner have now applied special deductions calculated from the time they acquired the house.



However, from 2023, the Democratic Party proposed an amendment to the tax law that calculates the holding period from the time of becoming a single owner rather than the time of buying a house.



It is analyzed that the intention is to sell the house by next year in order to receive the transfer tax deduction for multi-homeowners as it is now.

this pressure, some people are skeptical about whether or not they will actually put it up for sale.



Last year, the property tax and transfer tax rates were sharply raised to induce multi-homeowners to sell, but only the donations increased.



This time, the phenomenon of being locked up for sale or the so-called smart Hanchae phenomenon that only offers local properties instead of popular areas in the metropolitan area is taking place.

This amendment also included a plan to apply different tax benefits for long-term holdings according to the profits left by selling the house.



The purpose is to collect more tax when there is a large amount of profit from the transfer, but there are also criticisms that the related tax law is too complicated.
