With no lease in place, you keep full latitude over the choice of productions. Also browse the farms and agricultural estates for sale in Meuse.
Legally, buying farmland follows a well-marked path: notification to the SAFER holding a pre-emption right, a farming authorisation where required (structure control), and a notarised deed with about 5.8% transfer duties. Fiscally, letting under a rural lease generates property income, and long-term leases open, under conditions, partial IFI exemptions and allowances on transmission. Our financial calculators (financing plan, notary fees) are there to help.
