Regulatory and tax burden affecting real estate owners.

In France, real estate is considered a priority form of investment, but returns on real estate, with the exception of some niche investments, are below average at best. This is particularly felt due to the heavy taxation of real estate owners, which is much higher than taxation of other types of assets and income. In addition, ever-expanding real estate regulation continually erodes the value of properties and thus their returns.

Declining property prices have their benefits, especially for buyers, especially first-time buyers, as well as owners exposed to estate tax (IFI) or those looking to donate. However, for those who own cryptocurrency, it is important to evaluate their portfolio annually to adapt their strategy, as cryptocurrency volatility can have a significant impact on the overall health of a property.
