新罕布什尔公司提议对第二栋房屋和空置房产征税,以增加住房供应,产生9亿多美元的收入。
New Hampshire proposes taxes on second homes and vacant properties to boost housing supply and generate over $900 million.
新罕布什尔州立法者正在推动两项解决住房危机的法案:其中一项提议对第二套住房征收0.75%的税,对未用作主要住所的50多万美元的短期租金征收0.75%的税,为当地社区创造收入;另一项提议对一年半多的闲置或季节性租用房产征税,不论其价值如何,以鼓励住房供应。
New Hampshire lawmakers are advancing two bills to tackle the housing crisis: one proposes a 0.75% tax on second homes and short-term rentals over $500,000 not used as primary residences, generating revenue for local communities; the other would tax unoccupied or seasonally rented properties for more than half the year, regardless of value, to encourage housing availability.
两者都旨在增加住房供应和筹集资金,估计潜在收入超过9亿美元。
Both aim to increase housing supply and generate funds, with estimates of over $900 million in potential revenue.
支持者认为,这些措施在短缺期间促进公平,而批评者,包括财产所有人和一些立法者,则警告要承担财政负担和不公平地将财富作为目标。
Supporters argue the measures promote fairness during shortages, while critics, including property owners and some lawmakers, warn of financial burdens and unfair targeting of wealth.
这两项提案将受到对执行和公平问题的审查,两项法案均规定由小组委员会审查。
The proposals face scrutiny over implementation and equity, with both bills set for subcommittee review.
