This tax reduction measure (condominium life extension tax system) is a system to support consensus building for condominiums where it is difficult to reach an agreement on raising the reserve for repair or to implement large-scale repairs. Therefore, certified condominiums that have raised the reserve for repairs and carried out large-scale repair work may be eligible for a reduction in property tax.
※If adequate reserves are secured as of September 1, 2021, they are not eligible for tax reduction measures even if they have been approved for management plans.
