cassis Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Just read this on another forum - just in case it affects anyone, I thought I'd post it here.[quote]Information fournie par les G. de F.A compter du 12 août 2008, il sera nécessaire d’annexer à tous lescontrats de location portant sur un logement ancien, un Constat deRisque d’Exposition au Plomb (CREP).1 - Champ d’applicationCette disposition intervient dans le cadre de la lutte contre le saturnisme. Le Constat deRisque d’Exposition au Plomb devra être annexé à tout nouveau bail,qu’il s’agisse d’un contrat de location saisonnière, ou de tout autrebail à usage d’habitation, dès lors qu’il portera sur un logementconstruit avant le 1er janvier 1949. Ce certificat sera exigé surl’ensemble du territoire Français.2 - Contenu de l’information à fournir et sanctionsa) L’établissement du CREPLe constat de risque est établi par un contrôleur agréé ou untechnicien de la construction qualifié. Le constat devra avoir étéétabli depuis moins de 6 ans lors de l’établissement du contrat delocation, sauf en cas de constat négatif, qui n’a pas lieu d’êtreactualisé.b) SanctionsEn cas de non respect de cette obligation, la responsabilité pénale du propriétaire pourraêtre engagée au titre des « risques causés à autrui » (Nouveau Code Pénal article 223-1)ou des « conditions d’hébergement contraires à la dignité humaine » (NCP article 225-14).De plus, la responsabilité civile du bailleur pourra être engagée, lecas échéant, en vertu de l’obligation du bailleur de délivrer unlogement en bon état d’usage et de réparation.3 – Sources juridiquesLoi n° 89-462 du 06 juillet 1989, article 3-1Articles R1334-10 et suivants du Code de la Santé Publique [/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clair Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 The bit about the test being new and compulsory is true: http://www.service-public.fr/actualites/00960.htmlMy reading is that it applies to landlords (i.e. long-term rentals) and applying it to short holiday lets is stretching it, but that's my interpretation...BTW, the same is said about the "property energy performance rating": http://droit-finances.commentcamarche.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassis Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 I thought it sounded like it was stretching the point a bit, but it looks like the person posting lifted it verbatim from GdF somewhere.

Anton Redman Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Anybody who has bought a property constructed prior to 1949 in recent years will have had a lead survey. As it is lead in paint they are looking for I believe the survey is perpetually valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJSLIV Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 As it is lead in paint they are looking for I believe the survey is perpetually valid.That is correct if the survey confirms that there is no lead risk.However if the survey confirms that lead is present the document is valid for twelve months for the purpose of a sale or six years for a rental.http://www.astria.com/astriaEtVous/Newsletter21/diagnosticsTechinquesImmobiliers.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvellous. Another bit of paperasse to attach to contracts for gite owners.Or such is the theory. However, whether it is followed/enforced remains to be seen. Hopefully, it'll be followed like the rule about reporting out-of-town visitors to the gendarmerie. [:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
