Revenue 2010

20 April 2011

Hi,

I’ve received a 4 page form titled Revenus 2010... with a detailed booklet of notes (probably in relation to completing the form), and a leaflet regarding 2011 Revenue. I’ve emailed the sender, requesting advice/translation into English if possible. Just thought I’d check and see if anybody else has received this, and can understand French? It’s possible that only a few sections may need to be completed.

Thanks,

Tuulia

French mortgage

7 March 2011

Hi, Due to the leaseback management company going into receivership and not getting rent I am having to consider defaulting on a French mortgage. Does anyone know if the French mortgage lender can persue you in the Uk and if so can they enforce you to sell a uk property with a uk lender? Also have another French mortgage with a different french bank can they touch this? A bad situation but finding it hard to get answers.thanks

Resale - how much would we actually get?

2 March 2011

We have just returned from a holiday in our leaseback apartment. The neighbouring apartment is up for sale for about 150K Euros. It is the same size and layout as ours. We paid 110K Euros about 6 years ago. There was a vat reduction of about 21K. If it was to sell at 150, what happens to the VAT discount we benefitted from, do we pay it back out of the sale, or does the buyer benefit from the VAT discount that is left (ie 14/20 * 21K) and that is taken from the 150K?

This is really confusing me - can anyone help?

Thank you
K
 

Renewing leaseback

24 February 2011

Can somebody advise me please? we have a nine year

leaseback non guarantee rental scheme in the Vendee. The

lease stated very clearly that if we decided to withdraw

from the leaseback, the management company would not

require us to pay compensation. The management company

was bought by another company within the first nine years

of the lease. This new company now state that we must

compensate them if we do not renew our lease. The nine

years expires in December 2011. We would be interested in

OWNERS TAKING OVER MANAGEMENT?

23 February 2011

I have been viewing comments for a while but not participated until now. I am in a situation where the management company at our property says it will not renew the lease if we do not accept a substantial reduction in rent. I am wondering if any owners have actually got together and taken over the management of the property themselves? If so, what is involved and do you think it is worth it? Our property is on the outskirts of Paris so think it is a good location with a strong potential market.
