Real Estate in France

Real Estate
1

Hi all,

Does any of you own Real Estate in France and earn rents?

I have completed the purchase of 2 properties that are currently being renovated. I have done my research on French taxes but I am not 100% on some Swiss taxation details. For example, is it possible to declare a loss and reduce Swiss taxes?

In any case, it would be great to chat with you about opportunities and share our views on the market.

Best regards,

mmm

Let me share with you guys that interesting article published by EXPERTsuisse who summarize some interesting ideas to take into account when buying a property in France by a swiss resident.

I will be really interested if you have any other inputs about your investment strategy or what you consider for the due diligence of the property.

This article is interesting but slightly dated: there has been changes regarding the taxation of the real estate income. The article claims that the French income tax progressive scale is used but since 2020, it’s a bit more complicated than that.
A minimal rate of 20% is applied to the 1st euros until something like 27k. Then 30%. In addition to the 7.5% of social contributions. Unless you would pay less taxes using the French income tax progressive scale based on your global (worldwide) revenues ; which is unlikely given swiss salaries.

Meanwhile I’ve found a very interesting video on youtube:

Has anybody any input about the financing with a slightly low level of equity for a real estate asset in France ?

Hi,
would you have any updates on the topic? I’m planning to move away from Geneva and rent or buy a one-bedroom near the tram way.

Would you also recommend me some renovation work teams?
Thank you
