Every farmland sale is notified to the SAFER, which holds a pre-emption right (two-month response). Depending on the area and your situation, farming the land may require a farming authorisation under land-structure control rules. Transfer duties amount to roughly 5.8% of the price, plus notary fees. Once you own the land, you may farm it yourself or let it under a rural lease (statut du fermage, 9-year minimum): rents are taxed as property income, and long-term leases qualify, under conditions, for partial wealth-tax (IFI) exemptions and inheritance allowances. Cost out your project with our financial calculators (financing plan, notary fees, loan repayments).
