Selling property

Hi there! Thanks for advice. I'm new to this.

I bought a brand new holiday home 3yrs ago with a 10yr guarantee. It is my secondary home and I'm resident in the UK for tax. If I sell before owning it for 5yrs and buy another property in France, what taxes and costs will I incur in France?

16% on the capital gain i.e. the difference between the purchase and sale price and  if this is the first sale since new then 19.6% TVA on the difference between the TVA able amounts.  For example if the property was built for 100,000 then the TVA portion of that is 100,000 divided by 1.196 then multiplied by 0.196.  Do the same calculation with the sale price and then take one from the other.
