If you buy a new house in Suzhou now, you need to pay a maintenance fund of 2 points, a deed tax of 1 point for less than 90 square meters, a deed tax of 1.5 for a house above 90 square meters, and a second-hand house if the title certificate is less than two years old. There is a deed tax of 1.5 (one point per 90 square meters), a value-added tax of 5.3 and a personal income tax of 2 points. If the production certificate is more than two years old, you don’t have to pay the 5.3 value-added tax. If the production certificate is more than five years, you only need to pay the deed tax.
