City governments have leeway to tweak the rules, the people added.The plan, hinted at on Friday by Finance Minister Lan Fo’an, underscores Beijing’s increased willingness to use fiscal tools to shore up the sluggish economy along with monetary easing. Lan pledged to carry out “more forceful” fiscal policies next year after unveiling a 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion) debt swap for local governments, signaling bolder steps could come after US President-elect Donald Trump takes office.Under the latest proposal, top-tier cities are expected to be allowed to scrap the distinction between ordinary and luxury homes, which would substantially lower purchasing costs for people seeking to upgrade their residences, people familiar with the matter said. China first flagged its plan to rid such distinctions following the Third Plenum in July.The move, if realized, will help reduce cost of home buying and boost property sales, said Raymond Cheng, head of China property research at CGS International Securities Hong Kong.A Bloomberg Intelligence gauge of developers’ shares rose to as high as 0.3% after the news, before falling back to losses.In addition to the deed tax, Chinese homeowners are also subject to steep value-added taxes of about 5% for if they sell within two years. In Shanghai for example, apartments bigger than 144 square meters (1,550 square feet) are considered “non-ordinary.”The Ministry of Finance, State Taxation Administration and the housing ministry didn’t respond to requests for comment.Economists are calling for more fiscal support to ensure China’s roughly 5% economic growth target is met this year. Last month, President Xi Jinping reiterated the need to hit that goal. A yearslong property crash has wiped out billions of dollars in household wealth, adding to deflationary pressures.The property deed tax cut is consistent with earlier expectations that the government will issue fiscal policies helping the property sector, said Jeff Zhang, an analyst at Morningstar Inc.The plan to cut property taxes is set to reignite investors’ expectations for large-scale stimulus to boost domestic demand and combat deflation after last week’s high-profile legislative meeting fell short of market forecasts.China in the past two months unleashed its strongest package of policies to boost the property market, including cutting borrowing costs on existing mortgages, relaxing buying curbs in big cities and easing downpayment requirements.Residential property sales rose for the first time this year in October, suggesting that support measures were helping to inject some confidence in buyers. That said, the recovery was lopsided, with state developers benefiting the most from the stimulus and buyers preferring existing homes.The country also pledged in October to nearly double the loan quota for unfinished residential projects to 4 trillion yuan. But the announcement underwhelmed due to a lack of concrete numbers for special bonds to enable local governments to digest some 60 million unsold units.","kind":"news","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0},"commentList":[],"hasMoreComments":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":12,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false}}
