海外购房$5000补贴今日正式确认取消

新南威尔士州政府在今日(17日)宣布的预算案中取消了对国外买家购新房的补贴。预计耗资20亿元的Parramatta(帕拉玛塔)轻轨计划也将被搁置。

在新州目前的外国人购新屋补贴条列下,外国投资者在购买多个公寓时,每购买一个都可得到5000澳元的补贴,且没有人检查买家是否来自海外。

新州财政厅厅长康斯坦茨(Andrew Constance)在今日发布的预算案中修正了这一缺陷,确保购房补贴是给予符合资格的澳洲公民或居民,而不是国外买家的委托人。在这之前,新政府已支付了约200万的补贴给非本国的购房者。康斯坦斯表示,纽省政府所作的这一切是: “关于确保这些补贴是用于帮助我们自己的国民。”

与第一季度维多利亚州和昆士兰州首次置业者增长低于1%相比,而新南威尔士州的增长为4.7%。

自从2012年7月首次置业者补贴计划开始实行,已有429人即1.3%的首次置业者领取了补贴。在该计划开始后,政府取消了第一房主的补贴并且提高了他们新的置业的要求。从现在开始,对每个首置业者的个人资格审审核将更为严格。

反对党罗伯森(John ¬Robertson)今年二月曾呼吁新州政府改变首置业者补贴计划。

新州政府在周二的财政预算中,设置了两年后转亏为赢的目标,并预计将有额外的9亿至9.5亿澳元的印花税税收来自房地产市场的繁荣,这笔收入将会自动进入重新启动基金,用于新州基础设施建设。使基础设施建设基金在出售新州电力设备(电线杆和电线)之前,由600亿增加至700亿。

Foreign investors have been able to secure $5,000 for each new home purchase. They represented 1.3% of the scheme's take-up.

The decision, heralded in today's Daily Telegraph, follows a campaign by the The Daily Telegraph since February which secured the support of Opposition Leader John ­Robertson.

The grant will be only available to individuals who are Australian citizens or permanent residents.

The Telegraph's state rounds reporter Andrew Clennell published previously unavailable data that showed some $2 million has been paid out to non-residents.

“We’re all about making sure these grants help those in our own backyard,” NSW Treasurer Andrew ­Constance told the News Ltd audience.

Since the New Home Owner Grant scheme was instituted in July 2012, there have been 429 ­recipients who are non-residents — or 1.3% of recipients.

The figures come despite NSW Premier Mike Baird expressing recent concern about the lack of official information on foreign investment residential purchases in NSW.

His concerns were made to the House of Representative inquiry into foreign ownership of residential property.

The scheme began after the government scrapped first homeowner grants for existing properties and raised them for newer properties.

There have also been a small number of multiple applications.

From now on the New Home Grant will be restricted to one grant per person per year.

Opposition Leader John ­Robertson called in February for the government to change the New Home Grant scheme.

“The O’Farrell Liberal government is paying $5000 to overseas property investors to buy homes and land in Australia – that’s money taken straight out of the pockets of young first home buyers,” Opposition Leader John Robertson said at the time on the then O'Farrell government policy.

“Young couples doing the right thing and working flat-out to save for that deposit are paying the price for the O’Farrell Liberal government’s bungling of this scheme."

Last week John Robertson noted ABS figures showed that just 1,099 first home buyers received financing to purchase a home in April 2014 – down from 1,191 in March 2014 and less than half the level of the 2,415 who received financing in March 2011 before the Liberals came to power.

“Mike Baird has been patting himself on the back over the weekend for extending the threshold for first home buyers purchasing new properties – the ABS has confirmed that he is locking more young families out of owning their own home.

“First home buyers now represent only 7.6% of the NSW housing market – they have plummeted from 18.3% share of the market in March 2011."

The Shadow Treasurer Michael Daley accused the government of giving a leg up to overseas speculators – "and people buying their second, third or tenth property."

The grant is paid as a discount on stamp duty for properties worth up to $650,000 and vacant land worth up to $450,000.

The grant will be extended to new home purchases up to $750,000 in another pre-budget advisory.

The prospect of overseas non-citizens buying up newly built houses and apartments in bulk - all receiving multiple $5,000 grants under the NSW New Home Grant Scheme - was alarmingly raised in the Daily Telegraph.

It was wrapped within the now refuted suggestion that these Chinese investors were keeping first home buyers out of the property market.
