(ii) If the selling price is greater than five hundred thousand dollars, one and twenty-eight one-hundredths percent of the selling price.

EFFECT: Exempts multifamily housing with a selling price greater than five hundred thousand dollars (qualifying multifamily housing) from the two and three percent real estate excise tax rates established in the bill for transactions that meet selling price thresholds. Makes the entire taxable selling price of qualifying multifamily housing subject to a 1.28 percent rate.
