You rent a furnished property and you wonder about the social contributions to be paid. The payment of social contributions depends on the amount of income you earn from this activity. It also varies according to the type of furnished accommodation (long-term rental, furnished tourism classified or not). We show you the information you need to know about your 2024, 2025 and 2026 income.

The payment of social security contributions depends on your situation.

If you are considered professional renterHowever, you have to pay social contributions based on the amount of income received.

For the payment of social contributions, you are considered a professional landlord if the annual revenue from your activity exceeds €23,000 (except for bed and breakfast).

For tax services, you are considered non-professional renter if at least one of the following 2 conditions is met:

  • The annual revenue derived from this activity by all members of your tax home are less than €23,000
  • The income (rents for furnished apartments) is less than the total amount of other income from your tax household (salaries, other BIC: titleContent...).

The differences include:

  • Deficits removed from furnished rental
  • Real estate capital gains.

Deficits withdrawn from a non-professional furnished rental can be carried forward for 10 years on the income from the non-professional furnished rental.

Deficits withdrawn from a professional furnished rental may be deducted from the taxpayer's total income without any limitation on the amount. If this income is insufficient, the deficit can be carried forward for 6 years.

In case of sale of real estate, you can benefit from the real estate capital gains of individuals (including the deduction for the duration of possession of the property) only if you are a non-professional renter.

Please note

The professional furnished rental requires the payment of social security contributions. As a non-professional landlord, you only pay social levies.
