French Tax returns service still available?
Forums:
Hi Seamus,
Is the French Tax returns service still available here? I am very unhappy with my current French accountants service and their fees
Have sent a request on this from this site a few weeks back but no reply (could be in a spam folder)
Let me know
Kind regards

Leaseback ending and change to holiday home

Hi,

Does anyone have any experience of this company (Residis)? They have purchased this apartment block from Global Exploitation/Suite Etudes and it is now being used for social housing. We are being asked to sign a new lease that officially allows the building to be used for social housing.
When does 20 year TVA (VAT) start?
Forums:
The 19% TVA on purchase price of a leaseback property was returned if you signed a 'bail commercial'. If the property goes out of lease at any stage then you have to return the TVA on a 1/20th basis (for as many years are remaining in the 20).
My question is when does this 20 year period start exactly ?
- is it when you sign the lease?
- is it when you complete the sale of the property?
- is it when the property first comes available for tourist rental ie. the residence de tourisme opens for business ?
- other ?
French social taxes
Forums:
Are French social taxes due on Leaseback/para hotel rented properties for U.K. non resident owners? Have heard that we might now be liable for 7.5% . No idea if this is correct or not and Google research not very clear on the subject! So far have never been asked for it but maybe need to fill in an additional tax declaration? Anyone wise about this please?
annual costs
Forums:
Hi all,
We are currrently paying 27 euro per square meter fixed costs (coverin in fact all costs, electricity, syndic,...) that per our contract can be raised with 1,5 % each 3 years. but now we received a letter that due to the exceptional situation in 2022-2023 (inflation, energy costs exploding, lack of snow) they are forced to raise this to 33 euro per square meter. We wonder if we can challenge this raise ? Anybody who was in similar situation ?
Thanks!

How do I get insurance for my leaseback property?
Forums:
Hello fellow leaseback owners,
I was told by my bank recently that I need to have insurance for my leaseback. This was news to me as I've owned it nearly 10 years but I now want to get this sorted out. Other than asking my bank for a quote which I don't expect to be competitive how do I get this insurance as a non-French speaker? I googled and can't find any companies that I am sure are legit that offer the quote system in English. Axa was recommended in one post but they only have the online system or you can call but my basic French won't get me through that conversation.
