House, Assoedilizia: “We as in Britain. It serves’ local tax ” – DiariodelWeb.it

ROME (askanews) – Not all pay municipal services funded by property taxes. This was stated by President of Assoedilizia Achille Colombo Clerici that invites you to create a real “local tax” on the model of Britain, which is paid by both residents by tenants of a property.

Assoedilizia: You do not have to lower property taxes
“Some say that in Italy the tax on real estate is much lower than that of other European countries and that we must be careful to decrease – explains Colombo Clerici -. These claims arise from the combined mess our tax legislation regarding real estate taxation. On closer – continues – taxes on real estate, which are now, if not the only, the predominant source of funding for municipal services, do not pay them all: are exempt, as all’Imu as many as 20 million homes and the total of 30 to 5 million families Tasi users of municipal services (addressing the cost of a symbolic Tasi). “

The problem is confusion among residents and tenants
“In addition, according to government statements is affaccerebbe hypothesis exempt from Tasi also another 20

million Italian families. In Britain – adds – the Council Tax (a real ‘local tax’), which represents the bulk of revenue for municipalities’, is not paid by the owners of the property, but by all those who, occupying a property, they are users of municipal services, whether they are residents or tenants. There are social groups that use services without paying for them, as is done by us. Until you come out ‘from this misconception – ends – there will’ always someone who will say ‘that taxation in real estate and’ insufficient ‘.
