dreamhouse 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 just learn that renovation/A&A to the house is not eligible for refund of tax http://www.iras.gov.sg/irasHome/page04.aspx?id=2380 Who can apply Property tax is payable regardless of whether the property is vacant or occupied. However, you may apply for refund of tax on a property which is continuously vacant for at least 30 days or a calendar month and your property is: • intended for letting and no tenant could be found even though reasonable efforts to obtain a tenant have been made; or • undergoing repairs (repairs do not include renovations, alterations, improvements and additions) to make it fit for occupation. If you intentionally leave your property vacant or your property is vacant pending sale, you will not be eligible to apply for vacancy refund. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
