The answer

"Paying Zakat on money for the past year does not exempt one from paying it for the subsequent year. If money reaches the nisab and a full year (hawl) passes over it, Zakat becomes obligatory. Therefore, you are obligated to pay Zakat on all saved money. If land or an apartment is purchased for personal use (for living in) and not for sale, there is no Zakat due on them."
