Temporary Property Tax Relief and Residential Home Sales
This paper tests whether temporary property tax relief influences sales of eligible properties. We examine the short-run impact of a new five-year property tax credit made available to long-tenured senior homeowners in Maryland using property-level assessment and transaction data. We find that the temporary credit resulted in a statistically insignificant and economically modest decline in sales of eligible properties. We also find no change in non-arm’s-length sales of eligible properties, which include foreclosures. The results suggest temporary property tax relief does not induce short-term lock-in effects among eligible homeowners.
期刊介绍:
The goal of the National Tax Journal (NTJ) is to encourage and disseminate high quality original research on governmental tax and expenditure policies. Articles published in the regular March, June and September issues of the journal, as well as articles accepted for publication in special issues of the journal, are subject to professional peer review and include economic, theoretical, and empirical analyses of tax and expenditure issues with an emphasis on policy implications. The NTJ has been published quarterly since 1948 under the auspices of the National Tax Association (NTA). Most issues include an NTJ Forum, which consists of invited papers by leading scholars that examine in depth a single current tax or expenditure policy issue. The December issue is devoted to publishing papers presented at the NTA’s annual Spring Symposium; the articles in the December issue generally are not subject to peer review.
