Folks   Given the need for many of us (even as non-professional landlords) to move to the reel simplifie regime, does anyone know ...   Does one (in using réel regime simplifié) HAVE to secure the services of a business accountant ? Or would one be allowed to prepare one's own accounts, using one of the French business accounts software packages available ?   I've a suspicion that the answer to the above may be "no" - even as non-professional landlords, with réel simplifié regime one has to have business accounts prepared by a qualified professional - I've noted from www.impots.gouv.fr that early on the list of documents to be submitted for BICs is "votre attestation d'adhésion à un centre de gestion agréé"   In which case, presumably one could still save money by preparing draft accounts oneselves, for the qualified people to check and prepare the final ones …   Any information on above welcome !
