What are the benefits of buying in the name of a company in France?
- Purchase a property with multiple partners - there must be at least 2 partners (related or unrelated) but there is no minimum contribution
- Tax-free ownership transfers – ownership can be transferred tax free (to children or grandchildren, for example) by a transfer of shares
- Tax efficiency – 10% reduction in the taxable amount of your property for Wealth Tax and negation of Inheritance Tax if you plan to transfer ownership
- No impact on mortgage application – SCIs and SARLs have a transparent structure so mortgage application will be treated as if you were simply applying in your own name
