The montage of a leaseback operation is quite complex, purchasers need to apply for the initial TVA rebate, they need to make TVA returns and annual French tax returns. Some developers offer to carry out the filing of papers etc for the purchaser free for the first or first and second years.The theory is that the forms are simple and that once you have copies of the first year's returns, you can just copy them out for future years.

Most people would prefer to leave all this in the hands of a French accountant for the lifetime of the investment. Some of our developers offer this service for a fee. But we can also reccomend a 'cabinet ' of French accountants who will do all your leaseback returns for 190 euros per annum + tax for one property and another 70 Euros for each additional leaseback. this service includes the TVA reclamation in the first year.

To give you a clearer idea of what is involved, here is the service they offer in their words:-
