We need to understand that not only pads and sidewalks are important

« Just to make decisions with a scalpel and carefully make decisions, not an ax or a populism, » said Marius Čiulada, head of the Ober-Haus Old Town Bureau.

The cartel, the value of the dwelling, changed – about 20 thousand, later about 60 thousand, and later – 80 thousand.

Now everyone wants everyone to pay for the real estate. Rasa Budbergytė says that such a project would receive the greatest support from the coalition partners.

« The zero is zero, and then the first staircase – up to € 200,000 – 0.1 %.

Other rates would gradually increase according to the value of the property. If the value exceeds half a million, 1.2 % of the amount is considered. the rate. The fee for abandoned and unused assets could reach as much as 4 percent.

« There is no need to comment or speculate on individual fragments now to avoid the wrong impression that it will be some dramatic, unbearable burden, » said Prime Minister Gintautas Paluckas.

The government also promises a « gingerbread » – the first housing tax is offered, as they say, 50 % discount.

« People with low real estate will pay very minimal taxes, » Budbergytė promised.

LNK stop shot.

« In my opinion, the relief for the first home is certainly justified. Many countries apply various benefits for their first home, » said Gintare Skaistė, a Member of the Seimas.

However, such a discount will not save more expensive housing owners – it will not be able to exceed € 500.

« We apply a 50 percent discount, but the millionaires do not have a privileged position, a certain ‘ceiling’ is introduced, » Budbergytė explained.

The new rates should mitigate the situation due to the growing value of the dwelling.

« If we were doing nothing, the tax would rise quite dramatically. Therefore, the changes that will be made will not necessarily increase the real estate tax on those who are already paying it – on the contrary, they will allow them to distribute the burden more honestly, » Paluck explained.

LNK stop shot.

Every five years, the Center of Registers re -evaluates all real estate. The new rating will come into effect from next year.

« If the property values ​​were now fixed, they would have grown 50-55 %, given that this year growth would be 5-7 or even 10 %, at the end of the year we would have 60 % growth, maybe more, » Ciulada predicted.

Others estimate that the value of the property increased even more – from 70 to 80 percent. However, the global real estate tax will not cool down the market.

« For a real estate market to be undergoing major changes or people stop buying housing in big cities, where the highest value, I do not think this will happen, » said Mindaugas Statulevičius, head of the Real Estate Development Association.

« It is easier for residents to borrow now, which will encourage the real estate market again, » Ciulada added.

True, the builders have questions about who will be given a new fee. It usually goes to municipalities that improve the living environment for that money.

« People should demand from their municipalities and the central government so that this fee is only directed to the municipal budget and used purposefully, » Statulevičius said.

However, it is already clear that half of the money raised will be defense.

« We all have to contribute, we all have to understand that not only pads and sidewalks are important to your house, » Budbergytė said.

« It denies the meaning of the real estate tax itself, » criticized Mr Statulevičius.

« Municipal housing are really very different values, and it seems that most of the tax will be paid by the residents of Vilnius, Kaunas and probably resorts, » said G. Skaistė.

If the fee is calculated from the first euro, it is possible that the discount may not even be paid to collect the discount.

« If the amount is up to 20 euros, the administration, maintenance and management would cost more than the funds raised. It is better to just set such a limit and forgive people, » said Remigijus Žemaitaitis, leader of the Nemunas Dawn.

« We all pay as much as we can, as we can. We must finally move this question from the point of death, » Budbergytė assured.

Additional benefits are promised to retirees and families. The final agreement is expected to be reached within two weeks.
