French Investment Property Guides and Information

Welcome to the French-investment-property.com guides section. From here it is possible to source information on all the property types we include for sale on our site. Whilst the site is tailored towards finding investment property for sale in France, we also advertise commercial property and land for sale. As such we have the 3 broad categories of French investment properties, commercial property and land listed in the search engine.

Whilst it is clear what commercial property and land are to potential buyers, it is not so clear what constitutes an investment property. It is for this reason that we have supplied a number of informational guides on the topic to demonstrate some of the differences between the major products on the market. We have split our investment properties into 5 categories:

• French Residential Investments
• French Leasebacks
• Buy-to-Let investments in France
• French New Build (sur plan) Investment Properties
• Life annuity (viager) properties

Residential property investments in France are simply properties which are on the open market and represent a good private investment without falling into the scope of professional investment properties. These properties can all be good sound investments providing they are bought for the right price with the right use in mind. They may include properties which could be used as gites or B&Bs or perhaps for holiday lets. There are all sorts of ways to create sound investments in French property and the residential investments section includes property which is ideal for such private ventures.

The four other property types are more commonly viewed as standard property investments. These properties are still open to private and professional investors alike but they are often regulated to a greater degree than residential investments and also may benefit from tax breaks and guarantees on the return on investment (ROI). It is for this very reason that we have supplied information in our guides on these property investments in France as greater knowledge is required when entering into such ventures.
