Business Problem

The real estate market includes three main trades: developers, merchants, and real estate rental companies.

In this complex sector it is necessary to be able to clearly define your field of activity. A company that does little in the way of merchant transactions can find itself under the regime of promoters.

What tax regime?

From an accounting point of view, the question is clearly essential. This evolution of activity is likely to modify the accounting, and as a consequence, the taxation associated with it. The tax system differs according to the activity. Moreover, it is important to underline the fact that property taxation has recently undergone a major change with the introduction of the reform of the real estate VAT system on the 11th of March 2010.

The follow-up of the real estate operations

In the field of goods merchants, one idea is essential: the calculation of the margin, and in particular the margin by batch. This calculation must be anticipated as soon as the goods are purchased so as not to be confronted with unsolvable problems during resale. Similarly, it may be appropriate for leasing companies to have an economic and accounting vision by management lot.
