What are French Leasebacks?

Investors buy the freehold of an off-plan property outright, so you own the property. As with all new properties, the purchase price includes VAT, however with a Leaseback property the VAT is refunded back to you. As VAT in France is 19.6%, this either replaces, or significantly reduces your deposit. The property is then leased back to a management company who specialise in the tourist management, maintenance and rental of these properties for a period of 9 - 12 years. In return owners receive a guaranteed annual return which increases with inflation, irrespective of occupancy of the property, NET of all communal charges, maintenance and running costs.
