Haiti Finance Minister denies 10 percent annual property tax payment on VALUE of property

Haitians are worried that they will now have to pay property tax equivalent to 10 percent of the VALUE of their home each year to the government. Haiti's Finance Minister says this is NOT true...

Finance Minister Jude Alix Patrick Salomon says the 10 percent property tax is not on the value of the property itself but on the "rental value" (valeur locative) of the property.

Hmmm... What is the "valeur locative" of your property?

What do you think?
