BC's 2% Transition Tax on new homes wrapping up March 31, 2015

March 31, 2015 is the last day the 2% Transition Tax will be in effect.

This temporary tax is applicable on the sale of a new home that was 10% or more complete as of April 1, 2013. However, if ownership and possession take place on or after April 1, 2015, the 2% tax will not apply, as it ceases to exist on April 1.
