Investing in new buildings with the Pinel law

According to an Ifop survey, conducted in June 2017 by the investment specialist Idéal-investisseur, a net monthly salary of €2500 is sufficient to invest with the Pinel system. This makes the acquisition of real estate accessible to a majority of people.

Conditions to benefit from this tax advantage:

• The location of the housing must be in an eligible area: The housing must be located in an area where rental demand is high. The areas defined by decree are as follows: zone A bis (68 municipalities of Paris, Hauts-de-Seine, Yvelines, Seine-Saint-Denis and Val-de-Marne), zone A (other cities in the Paris region, Côte d'Azur, Swiss border areas, etc.) and zone B1 (large provincial cities).
• Maximum purchase price of the property: 300 000 € and 5 500 € / sqm.
• New or heavily renovated real estate.
• The property must be held in full ownership (no dismemberment possible except in the event of the death of the spouse).
• It must be rented bare (without furniture) within 12 months of its completion or purchase as the tenant's principal residence.
• The owner must undertake to rent this property for a minimum period of 6 years, with the possibility of two extensions per 3-year period. For 6 years of rental, the lessor benefits from a tax reduction of 12% of the purchase price, 18% for 9 years and 21% for 12 years.
• The rents and resources of the tenant, at the time of signing the lease, are capped by decree. In Nice, the rent ceiling is estimated at 12.59 € / sqm and the resource ceiling from 37,126 € to 106,431 € (according to loi-pinel-infos.fr).

Example of Pinel investment: For the purchase of a property at €150,000 rented over a 12-year period: your overall tax reduction is €31,500.
