The griping over the land transfer tax strikes me as realtor whining. It works out to an extra $6K on a $500,000 house, yeah, but how many times are you going to buy a house in your lifetime? 2 or 3? It's like complaining about a tax on wedding dresses.
The only people who really took a significant hit from the tax were flippers and speculators, and they weren't exactly good for the city in the first place. Good riddance.
Matt speaks the truth.
