Net yield is what a fully-managed non-resident owner keeps after French income tax at the non-resident minimum rates and social charges — here under the régime réel, on the net letting profit — divided by the all-in acquisition cost. Depreciation and financing are not modelled. Confirm the regime with a French expert-comptable.

Where the listing does not say who pays the agency, the fee is taken to be inside the advertised price and the droits de mutation are charged on the full price, the conservative case. Budget extra for diagnostics, a survey and a power of attorney if you will not sign in person.

No registration stated

The listing states no registration number. That does not mean the property cannot be let: the rules are per commune.

Ask the mairie whether this commune requires a change-of-use authorisation and a registration number for a furnished tourist let, and whether either can be obtained for this property by a new owner. A number printed by the listing belongs to the current owner's declaration and does not transfer with the sale.

Energy rating (DPE): class E

The listing states energy class E. From 1 January 2034 every meublé de tourisme must be rated A to D (law 2024-1039 of 19 November 2024). A class E home would need renovation to be let to tourists after that date.

Financials

What it earns, what it costs to own, and the net yield

Financial analysis
· Brixfox Standard · Non-resident · Fully managed
Fully managed is the Brixfox Standard shown on every card: a full-service manager's commission, charged on top of the Airbnb/Booking channel fees (not the cleaning cost — changeovers are funded by guest cleaning fees; you bear the residual). Self-managed drops the commission; the channel fees stay, because the platform is paid whoever manages, and you pay staff/local operations, a higher cleaning residual and your own time directly. Both scenarios divide the SAME gross revenue — the toggle changes the cost stack, not the revenue. That revenue is observed from actively-operated comps, so self-managed assumes you match their performance.Both scenarios share the same projected revenue — the toggle changes who runs the property and what that costs, not what it earns.
Net yieldNet operating income ÷ all-in investment. After local operating taxes; before home-country personal tax and financing costs. Modelled from observed market performance of comparable Airbnb listings.

Net yield on all-in investment
5.2%

Income tax is the non-resident minimum rate (20% to €29,579, 30% above) plus social charges, under the régime réel on the net letting profit (an LMNP return; depreciation is not modelled, which overstates the tax). Social charges are 18.6% for an owner insured outside the EEA, Switzerland and the UK and 7.5% inside; the tax line names the rate this listing is priced at. Whether a second home may be let to tourists at all is the commune's decision: many require a change-of-use authorisation (changement d'usage) and a registration number, granted per owner and not transferred with the sale, so ask the mairie before buying. Financing is not modelled.

Rental yield + value growth

Your net rental yield plus a yearly rise in the property's market value (land and building) that you choose. Value growth is an assumption, not data — which is why it starts at 0% and is kept out of the yield figures above.
