Are there any further taxes I need to be aware of?
Wealth tax is another tax to be aware of, although non-residents in France only need to pay this on physical assets rather than financial investments. When net real estate wealth exceeds 1.3 million euros, tax is then payable and is applied on net assets above 800,000€. As an example, if you borrowed 80% to purchase the property and it is valued at more than 4 million euros, tax will be payable if the equity is more than 800,000€.
