Investment in mountain areas – leaseback property

You own 100% of your property and can occupy it a few weeks per year. For the rest of the time, your apartment or house is managed by a professional operator which takes care of it and carry out the renting. You receive a secure fixed rent for the duration of the leasing period (for 9 to 12 years).

Benefits:

• Owning a property in an attractive area
• Advantageous taxation with the LMNP status (non-professional renters of furnished property) and the ability to recover VAT
• Opportunity to enjoy your property and the residence’s services for several weeks a year (swimming pool, hot tub, wellness area, etc.).
• Rental management and maintenance provided by a professional
• Receiving a rent whether the property is let or not

To guarantee a profitable investment, special precautions must be taken to avoid disappointments. It is thus essential to choose a leaseback property operated by a trusted, qualified, and recognized company with strong references in mountain areas and financial strength.

A high-quality property in a good location is the key success factor for your investment project. It is important to choose a dynamic and attractive resort in all seasons, with a good tourism potential (good ski area, various activities, accessibility, etc.). The tourist residence must also be ideally located near the ski slopes, shops, and services.

The accommodation needs to be comfortable and spacious, with great amenities and services within the building (swimming pool, sauna, ski room, etc.). The property will obviously be more expensive, but its long-term value will be maximized.

Finally, it is important to carefully check the commercial lease and be aware of the additional costs, the rules of rent-setting and the conditions of the lease renewal.
