Every realtor will understand that a home market value includes all costs and taxesSpeaking of Realtors, in addition to the 30% tax on the purchase of a new home there would be a 30% tax on realtor fees as well as a 30% tax on escrow/closing costs...and of course 30% taxes on escrow and realtor fees would be imposed even on "used" real estate sales.
Hope that was worded simple enough for you to understand.
Realtors pay the Income tax now and under the Fair Tax they won’t. If they want to try and tack on 30% to their present fees, let them try. I guarantee there will be a competing real estate brokerage that will keep their fees the same under the FairTax on all new homes sales. And if there isn’t a nearby competitor then buyers and sellers are going to tell them to take a hike.
You’re blowing smoke here and getting nowhere.
