安省省长Kathleen Wynne和财长 Charles Sousa,于2017年4月20日周四上午在新闻发布会上宣布了一条重量级的政策:包括多伦多在内的安省大金马蹄地区将实施15%的海外买家税。而该政策出台的主要原因则是:过去的一年里,多伦多房产的销售价格猛涨了33%。
其实,对于该政策出台的可能性,夏夏已经在之前发布的文章中有过讨论,感兴趣的朋友可以查阅夏夏2017年2月19日写的《万锦市议员提议安省全省征收15%外国买家税,各方反应很有趣 (夏欣怡编译)》和发表于《大众理财顾问》杂志2017年第3期的文章《新政实施,应如何投资加拿大房产?》。所以说,该政策的来临,虽然有些突然,但可以认为是在意料之中。
安省大金马蹄地区究竟位于安省的哪里?金马蹄地区位于加拿大安大略省南部,安大略湖西端,以大多伦多地区为中心,广义覆盖范围从伊利湖起向北伸延至乔治亚湾,大部分地区也在魁北克城-温莎市走廊之上以及五大湖区城市群之内。
