The Expenses to Consider
The purchase of a main or secondary residence involves expenses that our team can detail for you. To avoid any surprises, it’s important to be guided in estimating the potential cost when making an offer on a property. As a non-French resident, we recommend relying on our trusted partners to guide you through this financial aspect.
What to Plan For?
In France, there are several taxes, fees, and costs to consider when embarking on an acquisition project:
– Property tax
– Habitation tax
– Potential income taxes
– Notary fees
Only the buyer is liable for notary fees. He/she also pays the registration fees. The total fees represent approximately 7% of the purchase price, depending on the nature of the project and the area.
