Housing agents look through clients' information by the light of cellphones at around 10 p.m. as they stand in a line for housing transaction next morning outside the Sixth Taxation Office of Chaoyang District Local Taxation Bureau in Beijing, capital of China, March 7, 2013. Secondhand housing transaction surges in Beijing these days as buyers and sellers are rushing to "catch the last bus" and complete their deals before the new measures are fully implemented. According to the statement from the State Council, homeowners selling property will have to pay a capital gains tax of 20 percent of the profit they make on the transaction. Homeowners were previously taxed 1 percent to 2 percent of the total sale price. [Xinhua]
