The tax system in France can be very complex and difficult to fully understand. Some common taxes include the taxe d'habitation. This tax is paid by the renter, if the apartment is rented long-term, or by the owner, if the property is their primary or secondary residence
Your annual real estate property tax is called the taxe foncière. This is covered by the owner whether the property is occupied, rented or vacant, although there are some exceptions for elderly and disabled, and also if you are doing major long-term renovations. It is payable in the year it is imposed, and charged to the owner on the 1st of January of each year. In addition to this annual property tax, you will also be charged for your garbage collection under the Taxe d'Enlèvement des Ordures Ménagères (TEOM).
Don’t forget to budget for those other expenses that happen throughout the year as well. You may have a charge syndic for a building manager, and then there are also charges des copropriétés, which includes, water, building electricity, cleaning, maintenance, elevator, and guardian if your building has one.
Once a year, the building property management company, le syndic, will meet to discuss the expenses and to approve the financial reporting at the assemblée générale of the copropriété. They will also discuss any renovations or priorities for the building that need to be announced to the owners.
Always passionate about real estate, I started this adventure 15 years ago.
After a long stay in the United States, I was able to familiarize myself with the American market and how to meet new business clients. After arriving back in Paris, full of enthusiasm and energy, I created my own rental agency.
Since its creation, I have developed trust and a true connection with my client-owners. It goes beyond just rental management, they started to ask me to manage all of their real estate transactions. So I expanded my business, and I took over a real estate agency.
Located in the famous Le Marais district, I am able to meet all of your expectations in terms of research, investment, transaction and management. It’s very common, everyone is short on time and unable to figure out the complicated real estate process. Our real estate Home Hunters really become a perfect solution for finding your ideal home at the lowest price possible. My French and foreign investor clients’ requests for advice about owning and investing in Paris have become more and more frequent.
With my real estate and administrative background, and through my connections with banks, credit agencies and notaries, I am able to meet the high expectations of my clients by finding them their exclusive property.
