[뒷북경제] The possession tax bomb is fake news? ‘I have to pay the amount of rent to the government’ VS’

Disclosure price up to 19% in 14 years ↑… for tax targets such as Seoul, Gangbuk, Busan, Sejong, etc.

1 It was said that homeowners were protected.. There were also many areas where property taxes over 600 million won more than doubled.

Unlike the lower house, there is no end of controversy over the calculation of tax burden and publicly announced price standards.

The tax burden is rapid and unrealized profits are unfair, and disaster subsidies are given and criticized for the rise of wealth.

This year, public housing (apartment) prices rose by 19.08% on average, the largest in 14 years, and there is a clamor across the country. This is because the publicly announced price becomes the basis for paying the tax and property tax, so the detailed charges increase rapidly. Regarding the report that a’tax bomb’ is expected, Kim Tae-yeon, acting representative of the Democratic Party, said, “This is a generalization of the special cases of multi-homed people and expensive houses in the Gangnam area.” Multi-homeowners and owners of apartments in Gangnam, Seoul are required to pay tens of thousands of won or more of ownership tax (comprehensive real estate tax + property tax). However, even if it is not their case, if they have a house with a public disclosure of more than 600 million won and their tax has more than doubled from last year, would it be a bomb or not. Since the house price has risen a lot, is it right to pay more taxes? Or is it excessive to tax unrealized profits excessively?

Apartments with a public disclosure of more than 900 million won per household per house are subject to the tax. Seoul was 19.91%, Busan was 19.67%, and Sejong was 70.68%. As the publicly announced price soared, 3.7% of the country (52,4,620) and 16% of Seoul (41,2,970) won the grand prize. Considering that last year, there were 399,361 households and 28842 households, respectively, this is an increase of 69.6% and 47%. In addition to Seoul’s Masongseong (Mapo, Yongsan, Seongdong) and Nodogang (Nowon, Dobong, and Gangbuk), local metropolitan cities have significantly increased the number of tax inclusions. Gyeonggi-do has more than quadrupled to 84,323 units, and Busan also has more than quadrupled to 12,510 units. Sejong surged 70 times from its 25th to 1,760 last year. After checking the published price on the official real estate price alert homepage, complaints pop out mainly in internet cafes. President Moon Jae-in, former Democratic Party leader Lee Nak-yeon, and Vice Prime Minister Hong Nam-ki and Minister of Strategy and Finance have repeatedly raised the tax rate for single-home residents from 0.5-2.7% to 0.6-3.0% this year. In the case of two or more houses in the area subject to adjustment, the tax rate has increased from 0.6 to 3.2% to 1.2 to 6.0%, and the fair market price ratio has also increased from 90% last year to 95%.

The controversial part is the one-owner, not the speculative forces. According to the analysis of the ownership tax by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the official price of apartments with a market price of around 2.67 billion won, which is set at 2 billion won this year, rose 13.6% from last year (1.76 billion won), increasing the ownership tax burden from 10 million won to 144.6 million won. % Goes up. The official price of apartments with a market price of 1.71 billion won has risen from 960 million won to 1.2 billion won, and the resulting ownership tax burden jumps 43.1% from 3.30 million won to 4.32 million won. For apartments with an official price of 900 million won, the ownership tax will increase from 1.82 million won to 2.37 million won. For example,’Mapo Raemian Prugio’ (dedicated 84㎡) in Mapo-gu, Seoul, has an official price of 1.27 billion won this year, an increase of 200 million won from last year, resulting in a holding tax of 5.33 million won. This is a 47% increase from last year (362 million won). The tax tax has nearly tripled from 510,000 won to 1.41 million won.

The tax burden for multi-homed people jumps. In the case of two houses with Eunma Apartment in Daechi-dong, Gangnam-gu (76㎡) and Dogok Rexle in Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu (114㎡), the ownership tax rises 2.4 times from 49.99 million won last year to 120.89 million won this year.

Even if the tax is not paid, there are many places where property taxes have increased significantly due to the increase in publicly announced prices. According to the posted real estate price alert site, Doram Village 9 Complex (106.63㎡) in Dodam-dong, Sejong-si, posted an official price of 847 million won this year, up 64.5% from 516 million won last year. As a result of the simulation with the advice of Woo Byeong-tak, the manager of the Real Estate Investment Advisory Center of Shinhan Bank, the property tax for Doram Village 9 Complex rose 35.5% to 1425,000 won. The official price of Surubae Village Complex 1 (96.92㎡) in Bangok-dong increased 52.4% from KRW 475 million to KRW 742 million, and the property tax accordingly increased 30.0% from KRW 1164,000 to KRW 15,133,000. If the current disclosure is on an uptrend, it is highly likely that it will be included in the taxation target next year.

In response, the government reiterates that the burden of ownership tax for most households is reduced as 92.1% of all houses with a public price of 600 million won or less, subject to the special property tax rate, out of 14.25,000 households nationwide. Deputy Prime Minister Hong said, “As the government provides up to 80% of the tax credit for those who pay the tax tax as a single homeowner, the government has reduced the burden to a large extent.” “Generally, some expressions that it has become a tax bomb for all citizens is wrong.” .

In addition, controversy continues this year regarding the standard for calculating the published price. This is because there have been several cases in which the published prices differ even though they are apartments of the same area in adjacent areas or in the same complex. For example, the e-pyeonhansesangyeomchang-only area 84㎡ (10th floor) in Yeomchang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, and the same-dong Yeomchang Hanhwa Dream Green-like equilibrium (13th floor) last year’s public prices were 3,200, respectively, 728 million won and 696 million won. There was a difference of 10,000 won, but this year, it increased to 80 million won to 969 million won and 889 million won, respectively. Disclosures of 33.1% and 27.7%, respectively, were classified as being subject to taxation due to the difference in the increase rate, and those that were not. In Saemoom Village 14 complex in Saerom-dong, Sejong-si, there was also a case of mixed luck with the jongbu tax due to the difference between the upper house and the lower house. The official price of Room A on the 10th floor of Building 1,404 rose 64.3% from last year to 895 million won, but the taxation tax was avoided. However, right above No. B rose 63.8%, the rate of increase was lower than that of No. A, but the official price was set at 919 million won, making it the first target of taxation this year.

Of course, on the one hand, there is no voice that the government or the ruling party should pay taxes as the house price rises. However, there is a sign that even a movement of’tax resistance’ will appear due to the sudden tax burden for apartment owners. Among them, the complaints of retirees living on pensions without earned income or new one-homeowners who are subject to tax payment are dissatisfied. It also indicates a half-reduction in taxation on unrealized profits. There are also complaints about whether to pass on the increased tax burden to tenants, and there are also concerns about whether to pass on the increased tax burden to the tenants. This is why criticism is pouring over whether the government is pouring huge finances, including disaster subsidies, as a cause of responding to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19), and eventually filling up the scarce storehouses with the symptoms of the wealthy above the middle class.
