SINGAPORE — The Government will lower the holding period for those who want to sell a residential property from the current four years to three, the authorities announced on Friday.

The Seller’s Stamp Duties (SSD), which is payable by those who sell a residential property, will also be lowered by four percentage points for each tier, according to a joint statement by the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of National Development and Monetary Authority of Singapore.

The new SSSD rates will range from 4% (for properties sold in the third year) to 12% (for those sold within the first year). This compares with the current rates of between 4% and 16% of the property’s value.

The changes will apply to all residential property purchased from Saturday (March 11).

The announcements came as Mr Lawrence Wong, the Second Minister for Finance, introduced in Parliament new legislative changes with regards to the SSD.

"(The changes are) aimed at treating transactions in residential properties on the same basis irrespective of whether the properties are transacted directly or through a transfer of equity interest in an entity holding residential properties," the statement said.

It added: "The intent is not to impact the ordinary buying and selling of shares in such entities by retail investors, where the entities are listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange. However, significant owners of residential property-holding entities or PHEs will be subject to the usual stamp duties when they transfer equity interest in such entities, similar to what would happen if they were to buy or sell the properties directly."

现在激活了 用一用哈哈 方便大家@

真是出其不意啊

与什么时候签OTP无关对吗？

SSD减少 最直接的效果就是吸引投资客(投资周期缩短)尤其是期房(建好了甚至没建好就可以卖)。
市面上 没多少人愿意给SSD卖房，尤其是亏钱的话。SSD可以躲开，但是 ABSD总是得交。如果减少SSD，反而会增加交易量，那么，政府税收又可以增加了。市场流通性会略微改善。
4年改为3年，基本上还是将投机(快进快出的客户)排除在外。
至于TDSR 调整，本来就跟第二套三套房贷首付50% 60%重叠。

现在的问题是买家少，不是卖家少

不是市面上有更多的condo吗？

歪个楼问下seller stamp duty for 新的condo是从signing of OTP or S&P还是from TOP?

怎么是放宽的意思呢 恰恰相反吧

#房地产政策# 房地产降温措施有些许松动，3月11日起生效：

1. 卖家印花税：现在-四年内卖有收卖家印花税，第1/2/3/4年卖房的卖家印花税分别是16%/12%/8%/4%，第五年卖房没有税；改为-第1/2/3年卖房的卖家印花税分别是12%/8%/4%，第四年就可以卖了。

2. Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR): 现在-60%，即最多可以用收入的60%来偿还房贷，车贷，信用卡等等所有的贷款/债务都计算在内；改为-假如贷款是房价的50%或者更少，那么买家不受TDSR 60%的限制，但是如果贷款超过50%，还是受目前TDSR的限制[撇嘴]。

但是，额外印花税的税完全没有变[尴尬][撇嘴][撇嘴]最高贷款额的限制也没有变。

3月11日之后买房享受以上政策…

一大波降温措施也是从SSD开始的

大浪总是从小水花开始的，政府在释放信号了...

看来不同立场的人想法真是不一样，哈哈

终于可以在屏屏出手了！好棒！

还是5年
