heard from a sales agent says that recently the transaction on buying property had been huge because May 2010 onwards, gov will incure 5% GST on all property buying. meaning if your house is supposed to cost you 300K, now it will cost you 315K after implementation of 5% GST. this sound scary. is that true?

Not sure whether it is true because government already collecting stamp duty from S&P & property gain tax.
