Starting January 1, 2025, British Columbia is introducing the BC Home Flipping Tax to curb short-term property sales. In this video, I break down how this new tax works, how it differs from the federal property flipping tax, and what this means for homebuyers, real estate investors, and sellers. 🏠 Topics Covered: ✔ What is the BC Home Flipping Tax? ✔ How it applies to residential properties, pre-sales, and assignments. ✔ Key differences between BC’s new tax and the federal property flipping tax (effective January 2023). ✔ How much tax you’ll pay: 20% tax rate and gradual reduction over 2 years. ✔ Exemptions for primary residences and what conditions apply. ✔ Why realtors and investors need to understand these changes. ⚠️ Stay Informed: Understanding these tax rules is critical to avoid surprises and maximize your investment.
