A statement from Comptoir Foncier
Several laws on agricultural leases, notably the 2020 Act, together with the current economic climate, have had a significant impact on the profitability and value of rural properties. Recent and/or future decisions by European and regional authorities do not suggest that profitability for this type of property will return to stable levels.
However, the upward trend in the value of rural property over many years has made this type of property attractive to investors keen to diversify their portfolios.
The complexity of the law governing agricultural leases and the variations in value arising from the use, location and quality of the land make it advisable to seek the services of a qualified professional in this field.
Comptoir Foncier can assist you with:
- the valuation and appraisal of rural property, either with a view to sale or division, or for tax purposes (inheritance tax return);
- the sale of agricultural properties;
- optimising the profitability and availability of agricultural land, independently and transparently, through active and professional management.
