ThomasD Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I am hoping someone will know the answer to this question - have looked about and not found anything. Does anyone know if Fonciere and Habitation taxes are higher or lower (or no different) if the house is registered as a maison secondaire?ThanksThomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJSLIV Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 There are, allegedly. some places that charge a higher rate of tax for second homes. But it might be apocryphal!The habitation tax is reduced for families with lower incomes, a reduction that never applies to second homes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
