Hmmmm, kinda? AFAIK usually an investment tax is on gains, so "you must pay X% when purchasing an the capital" tax seems pretty unusual, or perhaps it exists under some other term. It's not quite a usual sumptuary tax either... I'm assuming it's more about ownership than usage, since it doesn't hit local landlords, and there are already visa/immigration systems if it were a matter of people-movement.
