High VAT on construction hindering development, warns real estate developers, despite positive outlook.

  • Real estate developers warn that the regime “serves no purpose” without a reduction in VAT
  • The high VAT on construction may result in unused land being released
  • The APPII highlights the high VAT in construction and bureaucratic delays
  • Some projects are stalled in city councils for five to six years
  • The land law may not lead to affordable housing construction as not all converted land may be financially viable
  • Real estate developers applaud the initiative despite the potential challenges.
