Новый налог обрушит цены на недвижимость

The cadastral value will throw on the market a lot of investment apartments.

Monday the owners of real estate throughout Russia will begin to receive notices for payment of property taxes. The timing here is not anything new to pay taxes will have until 1 December. But the numbers will surprise many people — not all citizens know that starting from 2016 the tax on property of physical persons is calculated according to the new rules in accordance with Chapter 32, “Tax on property of physical persons” the Tax code of the Russian Federation.

Recall that the 28 regions of the Russian Federation adopted a decision on the application from 1 January 2015 the cadastral value of real estate as a tax base. That means that now property tax will be calculated based on the cadastral value of the property, not the evaluation of BTI, as before.

“News” already wrote about the fact that the introduction of the innovations will be phased in order not to shock the owners of the real estate tax will increase 20% per year. And full tax calculated on the cadastral value of the property, close to the market, we start to pay by 2020. For example, for the 74-foot two-bedroom “panel” in the metro “Yugo-Zapadnaya” in the capital this year will have to pay 3678 rubles. And in 2020, it is 18 390 rubles.

More likely to feel the innovation Muscovites living in the center. The tax calculated on the cadastral value, can be daunting. For example, for a two-bedroom apartment in “Stalinka” in the metro “Frunzenskaya” in 2020 will have to pay 9 thousand rubles this year and more than 46 thousand

Of course, for a four-year transition period, property owners will have time to search out of the situation. Someone will advance to save money to pay the tax, someone will sell apartment in the center and move to affordable housing, and someone decides to start a difficult and expensive procedure of challenging the cadastral value of the property.

According to experts, challenging the cadastral value, you can reduce the amount of tax to 40%.

The first step in this case — the independent evaluation. Expert opinion will cost the owner of the property from 7 to 50 thousand rubles. The second step is to appeal to the court. And the defendant usually stands Rosreestr.

As have informed “news” in the Federal service for state registration , from January to August 2016 in Moscow, there were 441 registered an appeal to the court of revision of the cadastral value of real estate. For the full year 2015 in Moscow such cases was 310. Moreover, the proportion of individuals who appealed to the court increased in 2016 by half.

If you look at the situation across the country, according to rosreestra, from January to August 2016 6736 initiated disputes. 3796 lawsuits satisfied not satisfied 420 and 2520 are under consideration.

Experts say that the number of appeals to the courts to challenge the value of the property will increase significantly in the next year. In the coming months this will not happen for several reasons. First, few people know that you have to pay taxes under the new rules. Secondly, the population we have in the mass, legally illiterate and not all know that it is possible to challenge the cadastral value in court. And the third reason can hardly catch up to 1 December complete the whole procedure of contestation.

According to CEO of Berkshire Advisory Group Irina Vishnevskaya, even those who want to exercise the right to challenge established by the state cadastral value, will be faced with a serious problem.

— Due to the fact that the market valuation of real estate collapses in Moscow, the majority of real estate appraisers retrained in forensic experts. Although this is a completely different specialty — more legal than estimated. As a result, the quality of legal expertise that we are now seeing extremely low, — explained Irina Vishnevskaya. In this regard, judges are regularly faced with the impossibility of decision-making processes related to contestation of the cadastral value. We are now desperately short of qualified forensic experts. Of course, to find just expert easily, but a professional who at least knows the difference between the evaluation report from the conclusion of the judicial expert, is quite difficult. The law on the judicial expert activities may not take three years, he still lies in the Duma. As a result, these non-state forensic experts were completely uncontrolled and not subject to anyone. This is another side of the problem.

However, the Deputy mayor in the Moscow government on economic policy and property and land relations Natalya Sergunina said that the shortage of qualified experts not.

— I do not think that is not enough experts. The question is — who and what price willing to pay for their services, — told “Izvestia” Natalia Sergunina. Just experts are now beginning to inflate, and not all are willing to pay that kind of money.

In addition to the increased burden on the courts from the introduction of new rules of calculation of property tax there are two more “side effect”. Experts warn that soon will begin the migration of residents from the center to the outskirts, and the decline in real estate prices.

— The market will be thrown away investment apartments, which the owners will be simply unprofitable, — says Irina Vishnevskaya.

This opinion is shared by the Deputy mayor Natalia Sergunina. Moreover, she is convinced that there will be a reduction in apartment prices.

— We now have inflated prices, they are inadequate. We feed the developers, it’s not normal, ” said Natalia Sergunina. — When we purchased the investment at a few apartments, and they do not create the tax base, and the owner keeps them, not involving the circulation, it just preserves the overall trend of high real estate prices. But the volume will increase the tax burden, and therefore property prices will fall.

In the government of Moscow assure that vulnerable categories of citizens will not suffer after the introduction of the new rules. Benefits are the retired, the disabled, military personnel who have served 20 years, and many others (a total of 15 categories). But it is worth remembering that the beneficiaries are exempt from tax only one apartment or room and one dwelling house and one garage or Parking place.

— As for poor people, provide targeted assistance. And we will continue to provide — said Natalia Sergunina. — If we understand that man was in a difficult life situation and can prove my low income, we will make a decision about helping him.
