hefty taxation on foreign ownership has its benefits, better than our plan...of what? tracking? lol the data exists
as for the UK the average price of a home has been on the rise and it's now at $405,000CAD (thats amazing considering the size of the uk and its population) but, as i posted earlier, the UK will be taking steps to limit foreign laundering of money into their housing market, which theyve admitted to being a major problem
