How to deal with increasing property tax burden?

No. I have already explained above why that makes total sense..

And I think that is nonsense. Just like the property tax in general...

If you want to create incentives for living space, then you do not need either a property tax or a real estate transfer tax... quite the opposite, it is a massive impediment.

What "pleases" me is undeveloped land about 650m2. Previously 230 per year now 580 euros maybe finally selling a few now. Could be higher.

Do you seriously believe that the plot will be sold because of 350€ more? The potential appreciation is likely higher than that. At least if it is a growing city.

It's not primarily about incentives for housing, but about socially efficient use of land. So the less your use of your land benefits the community, the more there has to be compensation in another form. But yes, better completely away than as it is now. There are other instruments to promote housing construction. I totally agree with you on the real estate transfer tax. At least when it comes to owner-occupied use, it must be waived. In fact, I would also be in favor of eliminating it altogether and instead extending the period for the speculation tax. But also granting exemptions for incidental costs from the first acquisition and disposal in cases of hardship.

It was to be expected. Those who have been squeezed for years with larger houses (over 220m2 according to the factual value method) or who have new houses will be somewhat relieved. Those with very old houses are now paying more. That's only fair. It should only be based on the land and not on what stands on it. If property tax is needed at all. And let's be honest. Because of 2-300 € more or less property tax, nothing should wobble. Otherwise, it's just a house of cards...

Actually, every house that is either considered renovated or still quite new became significantly more expensive for us. Older buildings all cheaper. Yes, that really motivates you to energetically renovate your house. The weirdest thing was that 2 semi-detached houses (both completely identical in terms of land, floor plan, owner, directly next to each other) were valued differently.

Hello,

Do you seriously believe the property will be sold just because of €350 more? The potential increase in value is likely higher than that. At least if it is a growing city.

Oh, if the property tax for undeveloped land were simply doubled every year, that would help a lot after a few years. There are plenty of building gaps here where granny has already bought the land for the grandchildren (who are just starting school). Or farmer XY, who originally owned the area, has kept X plots for himself.

Best regards,
Andreas

Not because of 350 euros, but now that there are categories, the municipality has the possibility to control that.
If it is then 1000 or more per year, hopefully some will reconsider.

And yes, in our area we have real dream plots that are undeveloped, right in the middle of residential areas. Fortunately, all new ones are sold with a building obligation.
