Read the article 4 Aug 2013 Reform of the tax on real estate added values Michaël Zingraf is delighted to inform you about the reform of the tax on real estate added values - applicable as from September 1st 2013. BERNARD CAZENEUVEMINISTER OF STATE AT THE MINISTRY OF THE ECONOMY AND, IN CHARGE OF THE BUDGET Paris, July 18th 2013 N° 732 Bernard CAZENEUVE presents the arrangements for the reform of the tax on real estate added values which will render the market more fluid The President of the Republic announced on June 16th a reform of the tax system as regards the taxation of real estate added values. The objective of this reform was to render the property market more fluid, to support the activity of housing works and to encourage a decrease in prices which would benefit home buyers and tenants. This is to be reinforced by an exceptional supplementary tax relief for one year, intended to create a bounce in supply and amplify the structural effects of the reform. This reform will put an end to the perverse effects of the current system, initiated in 2011, which incited owners to wait for tax reasons before putting their property on the market. The economic impacts of this decision were indeed shown to be very negative, with a decrease in the number of transactions, as of the construction works which generally accompany a change of ownership. Bernard CAZENEUVE, Minister of State in charge of the budget presented the modalities of this reform to the Senators on Thursday July 18th, the reform being applicable as from September 1st 2013 for sales of currently taxable buildings, i.e. residences other than the main residence of tax payers and rental accommodation. The reform is based on two axes : To ease the flow in the property market and remove the tax incentive to defer the cession of buildings, the reductions for the length of ownership have been made more regular. The time period for benefitting from full tax relief on the added value under the heading of income tax will be reduced from 30 to 22 years ; with the same objective, the tax exemption under the heading of social security contributions (CSG and GRDS – General Social Security and Social Security Debt Reduction) will now apply progressively each year and will reach the full amount after 30 years. To amplify this effect and allow for the immediate unblocking of the property market,an exceptional additional deduction of 25% will be applicable to sales completed between September 1st 2013 and August 30st 2014. These modalities will be laid out in detail in instructions which will made public very soon. They will be integrated in the draft finance law for 2014. Furthermore, in conformity with the announcements of the President of the Republic, tax deductions for the length of ownership of building land will be terminated, which will reduce the incitement to retain land which is available for building housing.
