Taxation of residential property - advice to the WAK-S on system change in the taxation of residential property
Silvia Hunziker
The Commission for Economic Affairs and Taxes of the Council of States (WAK-S) has continued its deliberations on the change of system for the taxation of residential property.
After the WAK-S had already decided at its February meeting that only owner-occupied residential property at the main residence, but not second homes or rented properties, should be affected by a change in the residential property taxation system, it discussed further key points. In doing so, it is guided by the wording of the Commission initiative (transaction no. 17.400). In order to be able to carefully assess the effects of various options, the Commission has commissioned further clarifications. An overall decision will be taken after the summer break.
