<Anchor> The



bill to increase the transfer tax exemption standard for one house per household from 900 million won to 1.2 billion won has been adrift for the second month. The problem is, because the difference in tax to be paid depending on whether or not it passes is large, the number of items for sale is reduced and the balance date is delayed.



Reporter Hyung-woo Jeon covered the report.

In August, the Democratic Party proposed a bill to amend the Income Tax Act to raise the threshold for exempting the transfer tax of one homeowner from the current 900 million won to 1.2 billion won.



The bill is still sitting on the standing committee as the party's consultations continue after two months.

Even as there are concerns about the lock-in phenomenon and side effects of demanding more money instead of delaying the balance date from the seller, voices calling for the party government to rush to conclusions is high.
