The property tax will increase by at least 7.1% for all owners in 2023, with strong disparities depending on the city. Certain municipalities will thus experience spectacular increases, such as in Paris (+51.9%). However, in certain cases, it is possible to obtain a reduction or total exemption from this tax.
A very steep bill, but not for everyone. While non-monthly property owners have already received their property tax notice at the end of August, monthly taxpayers will discover the bill from September 22. But some may benefit from a reduction in the amount of this annual tax, or even be completely exempt, due to the new provisions of the finance bill for 2023.
Temporary exemption
Indeed, the finance bill for 2023 made it possible to extend a reduction or exemption from property tax to certain people and according to certain criteria. First of all, according to the text, owners of housing purchased new, or for sale in the future state of completion, are in principle exempt for the two years following the end of the construction work.
Some can extend this exemption for up to fifteen years in the case where the housing was built with a loan under the HLM regime, or financed more than 50% by loans assisted by the State (with the exception of housing financed with the zero-rate loan), as reported the public service website.
Furthermore, an owner can also be exempt from property tax if he has vacant accommodation, normally intended for rental. However, this vacancy must be involuntary on the part of the owner, and must last at least three months.
Permanent exemption
It is also possible to benefit from a permanent exemption from property tax according to several criteria: people aged over 75, subject to means testing (even for their secondary home) as well as for holders of the disabled adult allowance. .
The resource conditions depend on the reference tax income of the previous year, which must be lower than certain ceilings of the family quotient. For 2023, it is set at 11,885 euros for the first share, and more than 3,174 euros for each additional half-share. Taxpayers who subsequently exceed this ceiling are still exempt for two years.
For beneficiaries of the supplementary disability allowance or the solidarity allowance for the elderly, no means test is necessary to obtain a total exemption.
Partial reduction
Still according to the text of the law, the partial reduction only concerns taxpayers aged over 65 and under 75. They can benefit from a property tax reduction of 100 euros depending on certain resource conditions.
Capping at 50% of income
Finally, it is possible to obtain a capping of the property tax. Indeed, depending on the taxpayer’s income, some, who might not benefit from an exemption, may see the amount of their tax capped. To do this, you must not be subject to real estate wealth tax, and have a reference tax income which does not exceed 27,947 euros for the first part of the family quotient, as well as 6,530 euros for the first half share. additional and 5,140 euros for the other half-shares.
Therefore, if all the conditions are met, you simply need to request a capping via a form, and the part of the property tax which exceeds 50% of the tax household’s income is eliminated. In the event of an error in taxation, it is possible to file a complaint with the public finance center in order to examine the file, specifies the tax website.
