Property Renovation in France

Welcome to our Guide to Property Renovation in France.

The main focus of these pages is on the financial assistance for renovating property in France, rather than the technical aspects of property renovation.

There is a reduced rate of VAT in France for home repairs and improvements, and there are also a range of home improvement grants that are available.

There is also French tax relief available for home energy conservation and disabled works.

We also briefly consider French mortgages for renovation, and assistance to chambres d'hôtes and French gîtes.
