The SCI is an interesting company system in France, if you want to protect your professional or personal real estate assets. The different advantages of the SCI are as follows:
- Protect your assets : in the event of legal proceedings or transfer, the property is protected and the shares are easily transferred to others. This avoids the risks of joint ownership which often leads to the sale of the property.
- Ensure land income , while deducting charges, particularly loan interest. The net profit therefore constitutes, once the loan has been repaid, additional taxable income.
- benefit from tax advantages such as:
* Deduction of charges,
* possibility of deducting VAT.
* Possibility of deducting acquisition costs (if option for corporate tax)
* Reduction for holding period in the event of sale
- Transfer with peace of mind , when the property is given between living people or in the form of inheritance, it is a transfer of shares, which gives the right to a reduction. As a result, the value of this transmission as well as the taxes to be paid are reduced.
