Before signing, three points to check: the SAFER's pre-emption right (cleared through notarised notification, two-month response), land-structure control (farming authorisation depending on area and situation) and transfer duties (about 5.8% of the price, before fees). After the purchase, farm directly or let under a rural lease: long-term leases carry, under conditions, IFI and inheritance advantages. Estimate your budget with our financial calculators.
