PARAHOTELLING: ON-SITE CONCIERGE / FREE OCCUPATION Our concierge service, specialized in managing very high-end properties in the mountains, will be on-site during the resort's opening periods and will take care of: marketing stays on specialized platforms (Booking, Airbnb, Abritel, Expedia...) but also negotiating with tour operators or company committees to optimize occupancy. Provision of para-hotel services: Personalized welcome Regular cleaning of premises Provision of bed linen and towels Possible provision of breakfast It should be noted that this is not the establishment of a lease but rather a concierge mandate, charging only 21% for stays booked. Finally, you can occupy the property as you wish. ADVANTAGEOUS TAXATION As you can see, the taxation on para-hotel services with hotel services is very advantageous in many ways: Recovery of VAT, which is 20% of the purchase price, in full within 6 months following the notarial deed. No income tax on rental income generated Amortization of the real estate allowing the creation of an accounting deficit No capital gains tax on resale after 5 years of operation Regarding the legal and tax structure we present (which is not mandatory but recommended), you need to set up an Individual Business (or LLC or SAS, but not an SCI), as a B.I.C Pro, with the social object being hotel accommodation with hotel services and that you (with the concierge) are able to provide at least 3 of the 4 services regularly (welcoming, provision of linen, regular cleaning, breakfast). You can benefit from the following tax schemes: Subject to VAT Recovery of 20% VAT on the real estate (with definitive acquisition of 1/20 each year) Recovery of VAT on the furniture pack and all other charges (notary fees, co-ownership, accounting, electricity, water...) Collection of 10% VAT on stays billed to your clients All expenses are deductible + accounting depreciation of the real estate The HT price of the real estate can be depreciated over a minimum of 20 years, creating a (fictitious) charge that will result in a deficit in your accounting result each year (unless exceptionally well rented). Since it is a professional activity, all expenses are deductible: notary fees, co-ownership, property tax, CFE, URSSAF flat rate (if set up as an Individual Business or LLC), travel expenses to go there for professional reasons, loan interest... Integration of the activity's result into your Reference Taxable Income Like any professional activity, you must integrate the result (in this case the deficit) into your RTI, which will reduce your IR taxable base and lower your tax rate to the highest marginal rate (40% or 30%). Exemption from capital gains tax after 5 years Like any merchant who sells their business after 5 years of activity and generates less than €250,000 in annual turnover.
